President José Antonio Kast's administration, inaugurated March 11, 2026, has prioritized security through decrees on migration control, border barriers, and school protections amid localized student protests over education reforms and budget cuts, as seen in late-March clashes in Santiago where police deployed water cannons and authorities proposed harsher penalties for school violence. Fuel price hikes following subsidy removal sparked further demonstrations, but these remain contained without widespread riots or threats necessitating a state of siege—the most severe constitutional exception, distinct from prior regional emergencies extended under former President Boric in January. Trader consensus at 89.5% "No" reflects the government's firm policing and legislative responses stabilizing the situation ahead of June 30 resolution.

To count toward resolution, the corresponding decree must explicitly constitute a “State of Siege” as defined by Article 40 of the Chilean Constitution, i.e., it must not be rejected by the National Congress within five days of the President submitting the declaration (after which Congressional approval is deemed granted if no decision is issued).
Only declarations explicitly constituting an “Estado de Sitio” under Chile’s constitutional states of exception will count. If the legal name of the “Estado de Sitio” state of exception changes via constitutional reform but retains the same essential powers, it may qualify.
A declaration of a “State of Emergency” (Estado de Emergencia) or “State of Catastrophe” (Estado de Catástrofe) will not count.
If a region is under a State of Emergency and is subsequently upgraded to a State of Siege, the market resolves "Yes" once the State of Siege takes effect as described above.
A decree applying to any province or region of Chile will qualify.
The primary resolution source will be the Diario Oficial de la República de Chile (www.diariooficial.cl). However, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
