Chile's president called on to step down
By United Press International
SANITAGO, Chile — Chilean army officers yesterday pledged their loyalty to military President Augusto Pacheco and urged the president commanded that the president step down.
Chile's major newspapers published a lengthy statement by the Democratic Alliance — a coalition of opposition parties that called for the establishment of transition government to lead the country back to democracy within 18 months.
It was the first time Chilean newspapers have published a political statement directly demanding Pinochet's
resignation, and it was an indication of the process of political liberalization begun by the newly appointed civilian Interior Minister Sergio Ojuro Fara.
JARPA, WHO took over the key cabinet post two weeks ago, has promised a freely elected congress before 1989 — the date set by Chile's present constitution for a military withdrawal.
Pinochet, who last week accused the opposition of attempting to divide the armed forces, said at a military ceremony that the Chilean army remained "monolithic, united and loval."
Generals, officers and soldiers attended the ceremony, pledging their loyalty to the 67-year-old president, who became their Commander in Chief in 1973, less than three weeks before the military coup that toppled the leftist government of Salvador Allende.
"I have never sought to politize the army," Pinochet said. "As a force, the army remains intact. It has not been politicized."
THE DEMOCRATIC Alliance, headed by the Christian Democratic Party — Chile's largest political organization — in a nine page statement outlined its alternative proposal for a return to democracy. It included the holding of a national plebiscite to
approve the setting up of an interim
Constituent Assembly.
The document said a solution to the country's political crisis required Pinochet's replacement by a neutral capable of uniting the population.
"As in other critical moments of our history, the head of state must help the country by resigning the presidency of the republic," the statement said.
Seeking to defuse mounting opposition, which has erupted in violence during a series of monthly protests against the government, Jarpa has stepped up the repatriation of political exiles.
