Chile
Mass demonstrations have continued since yesterday after political parties struck a deal in parliament to organize a referendum in April 2020 on a new constitution.

Although the drafting of a new constitution is one of the main demands of the protesters, the protesters received the new agreement with skepticism, demanding that their living problems be resolved first.
