The Head of Political Relations of the Communist Party of Chile and one of the founders of the Chilean media Crónica Digital attended the journalistic event, held from January 21 to 23, and pointed out the unity and contribution of the participants in the face of disinformation and false news.

Lagos later visited the headquarters of Prensa Latina to meet with its president, Luis Enrique González, with whom he agreed to underline the close collaboration between the agency and Crónica Digital.

Likewise, they expressed their commitment to strengthen those ties and join efforts to put into action the principles expressed by the delegates to the Conference, held for the 65th Anniversary of Operation Truth, called by Fidel Castro to face hostile media campaigns coming from the United States.

Lagos told Prensa Latina that he also visited the Fidel Castro Center in the capital, where he presented its director, Rene Gonzalez, with the medal for the 50th anniversary of the coup against President Salvador Allende.
