A month before the start of COP25, Chilean President Sebastián Piñera announced to the world that his country would no longer host the UN climate conference.
Pressured by huge protests which called for more social and climate justice, the Chilean government passed the position of COP25 host to Spain, but continued repressing the demonstrations with brutality.
