Chile is marking 50 years since the coup d'etat that brought Augusto Pinochet to power, with political divisions over the legacy of his brutal dictatorship on stark display. Commemorations of the violent US-backed ouster of Marxist leader Salvador Allende still evoke strong emotions, and police fired teargas and water cannons at protesters who vandalized the presidential palace on the anniversary's eve. Leftist President Gabriel Boric led an event at the palace, known as La Moneda, to mark the historic date, and stressed the need to condemn those who violate human rights "without any nuance." For in-depth analysis and a deeper perspective on the deep political divisions as Chile marks 50-year coup anniversary, FRANCE 24's Mark Owen is joined by Chilean-born Raquel Garrido, Deputy in the National Assembly of France, La France Insoumise.
