The protesters walked in front of the Presidential Palace, La Moneda, and the Ministry of Education. The Confederation of Chilean Students (Confech) accused the police of suppressing the massive march with attacks and tear gas, despite the fact that they had committed tehmeselves not to intervene. The main motto of the chilean students protest is "In an unequal country we should all fight. Free public education to change society".
