Assassination on U.S. Soil: Orlando Letelier's Son Seeks Justice for 1976 Bombing by Pinochet Regime
As part of events marking the 50th anniversary of the U.S.-backed military coup in Chile that ousted democratically elected socialist President Salvador Allende and led to the dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet, Chilean President Gabriel Boric visited Washington, D.C., Saturday to deliver a historic address. He spoke at the site where former Chilean diplomat Orlando Letelier was assassinated in 1976 by agents of the Pinochet dictatorship, along with his co-worker Ronni Moffitt. We feature excerpts from the address and speak with Letelier's son, Juan Pablo Letelier, a former member of the Chilean House and Senate with the Socialist Party, about his father's assassination and the Boric administration's work toward redress for the families of victims of Pinochet's regime.
