Chile senator urges Cosena over Argentina Strait of Magellan tension

Chilean Socialist Senator Juan Luis Castro publicly urged President José Antonio Kast to convene the National Security Council to address escalating tension with Argentina over the Strait of Magellan, warning of U.S. interest in southern Argentina. The request signals domestic political pressure on Kast to formalize a security response, though no concrete action has been taken. The dispute, which has resurfaced cyclically, now carries added geopolitical weight given the strait's strategic maritime significance.
