In this welcome meeting we expressed our willingness to work together on a bilateral agenda.
Chile has taken an enormous step in creating a country by everyone and for everyone. My commitment is we will work in every possible way without rest very close to all of you.

Who would have thought 20, 10, five years ago, that Chile would elect a woman president? ... Thank you for inviting me to lead this voyage.

We will continue to do well what we have been doing well, maintaining a stable economy.
