Chile, Kast’s embarrassing family past: the father of the right-wing presidential candidate was a member of the Nazi party

There are no more rumors, now there is proof: a card from the German Federal Archives. It confirms what Chile’s aspiring far-right president has always denied: the father of Jose Antonio Kast, Michael Kast, was a member of the Nazi Party. Nobody had forced him to join, it is not true that he had been like millions of Germans only forcibly enlisted in the army and that this did not automatically make him a follower of Hitler.
