# Chilean Elections: Dr. José Benjamín Pérez Matos Links Voting to International Stance on Israel

***From Puerto Rico, the leader of the Kingdom of Peace and Justice Center analyzed the Chilean presidential runoff and highlighted the strategic impact of electoral decisions in Latin America.***

*Cayey, Puerto Rico - December 14, 2025*

Amid Chile’s presidential runoff election, Dr. José Benjamín Pérez Matos issued a statement analyzing the relevance of the electoral process—not only at the national level, but also in its regional and international ramifications, particularly regarding the nations’ stance toward Israel.

During his remarks, the president of the Kingdom of Peace and Justice Center highlighted José Antonio Kast, underscoring his political orientation and foreign policy stance. Within this context, he proposed that electoral decisions must be evaluated based on the strategic alignment of the candidates, noting: **“Chilean people: today is the day of the best decision you can make in this vote.”**

Dr. José Benjamín Pérez Matos maintained that the vote plays a decisive role in shaping the course of nations, not only in terms of domestic policy, but also regarding their integration into the international system. In his analysis, he affirmed that the stance toward Israel constitutes a central axis in projecting the stability and development of countries.

Furthermore, the Puerto Rican leader presented a regional vision, anticipating a process of greater cohesion among Latin American and Caribbean nations around this geopolitical axis. In this regard, he noted that current electoral processes could lay the groundwork for a realignment of international relations across the continent.

The message also called for active voter participation, emphasizing the importance of individual commitment in shaping each country's political direction. Within that framework, the need was highlighted for citizens to make informed decisions that contribute to the strategic positioning of their nations on the global landscape.

Dr. José Benjamín Pérez Matos's overarching argument presents the Chilean electoral process as a turning point with implications that transcend beyond the local level, extending its influence across Latin America and its relationship with the international landscape.
