Following the Senate's seal of approval last week, Chile's Congress approved almost all of a major legislative overhaul with which the government seeks to boost the economy, one of the main campaign promises of the far-right president Jose Antonio Kast. The opposition had fiercely contested the measures, which it argues disproportionately favor the wealthy. (Photo by Francesco GASPERI / AFP via Getty Images)
