Chile during World War II

Chile remained neutral during World War II and did not actively participate in the conflict. The country, led by President Pedro Aguirre Cerda during the early years of the war, maintained a policy of non-intervention and focused on internal matters. Several factors contributed to Chile's decision to stay out of the conflict.
Chile was undergoing a period of political stability under President Aguirre Cerda, and there was a desire to avoid involvement in the external conflicts that were gripping many other nations. Chile had strong economic ties with both the Allies and the Axis powers. The country was a significant supplier of copper, nitrates, and other minerals, and its economy was dependent on exports. The government aimed to protect its economic interests by avoiding taking sides in the war. Chile's geographic location, situated on the western coast of South America, provided a degree of isolation from the main theaters of war in Europe and Asia. This geographical distance contributed to Chile's ability to remain neutral. President Aguirre Cerda implemented a policy of focusing on domestic issues and social welfare, particularly in addressing issues related to poverty and education. This domestic focus was prioritized over involvement in the global conflict.
Despite its official neutrality, Chile faced some challenges during the war. The German navy carried out operations in the South Atlantic, and there were concerns about the possibility of German submarines operating near Chilean waters. The codename for the German espionage in Latin America during World War II was named Operation Bolívar and was major in Chile, Argentina and Paraguay. Additionally, there were internal debates and divisions over the country's stance, with some factions expressing sympathy for either the Allies or the Axis powers. After President Aguirre Cerda's death in 1941, his successor, Juan Antonio Ríos, continued the policy of neutrality. Chile maintained diplomatic relations with both Allied and Axis nations throughout the war. It wasn't until after the conflict that Chile, like many other nations, participated in the establishment of the United Nations in 1945.

    Missing things. Google 'Chile impidió entrada judíos refugiados' (don't use quotation marks) and you'll find several scholarly articles about Chile's refusal to admit Jewish refugees escaping from the Nazis. Also, you can google "Chile" "japoneses" "segunda guerra" (with quotation marks) and find out that Chile interned Japanese citizens like the USA did. There's a doctoral dissertation on the subject: Paredes Venegas, M. (2012).

    You forgot to mention that Chile did not declared war against Germany or Italy in 1945, only against Japan. This was because it was a requirement to declare war on an Axis country to enter the United Nations. And because, as said in the video, the german and italian influence was strong in the chilean society. And Japan inmigrants in Chile (wich were few) suffered more prosecution. Finally, just a minor detail, but the chilean Comunist Party (and other far left groups) supported the neutrality policies until the invasion of Germany of the Soviet Union in 1941. This shows how the comunists in Chile followed the policies of the Komitern and the Soviet Union, first by respecting the Molotov Ribbentrop pact in 1939 to june 1941, and then supporting the Allied cause in 1941 to 1945. This was relevant because more political parties supported to side with the Allies and abandon the neutrality. Cheers from Chile!

    Chile represented the "Polish interests" and their citizens in two Axis countries: Romania and Italy (1940 - 1943). Samuel del Campo saved 1200 jews polish, in his condition of the Chilean chief of the legation in Romania, using the open or ambiguous meaning of "interest" that the diplomat comunication received from the Chilean foreing office. Without a express order of Santiago, he gave them Chilean passports or other docs "laissez passer" in Transnistria. By this, he was called a fair or just man among the nations by a human's rights museam in Israel called Yav Yashem. The history appears in the book "Samuel del Campo Mas allá de la diplomacia" wrote by Jorge Schindler, a chilean diplomat, and in romanian archives.

    Washington Silva eventually became a Major General in the Chilean Air Force. During World War II, the U.S. desperately needed information about how to use pontoon aircraft, in order to do aqueous take-offs and landings in the area of SE Asia. So, Chile sent Silva to Coronado Bay in San Diego County, California, to teach U.S. Navy pilots how to fly pontoon aircraft.

    I know what I know from personal contacts in Santiago. I heard about this (out of the mouth of Washington Silva, born probably about 1910 or 1915) over 40 years ago, so Silva and the path to him = the deceased. His brother was also a Chilean Air Force General named Dante Silva. If the Chilean Air Force is willing to release old records, they would have all the information including their records of sending him to California in about 1942. Unless it was done with a deniability cover so as to not anger Hitler. Even before the war there were German military operatives running around Chile etc. doing intel and infiltration set up work. His brother Dante Silva was also a Chilean Air Force General, posted to Brazil as a military attache. He emerged from a meeting into a crush of eager reporters, suddenly pushing to know why the new president of Chile had just fired him. He knew nothing of it and so answered, "Well, I suppose the president knows what he is doing." In fact the new president had been told erroneously the slot was vacant and needed filling, which the new president did in innocent ignorance. When Dante said, "I suppose the president knows what he is doing" the president interpreted that as an insubordinate wisecrack and immediately fired him, permanently. That would be in print in newspaper records in Brazil and probably Chile from ?? about 1960 ?? @@What_If_We_Tried

    Growing up in Chile I do not recall world war 2 being taught or being part of the history curriculum. My mother was greatly affected by the war as my grand father lost his life in 1942 when his ship, the Tolten, was sunk by an U-Boat off the coast of the United States. His name was Tomas Moore Hodges

    World War 2 in general is taught in schools in Chile, but only the most global issues regarding the conflict. However nobody teaches about Chile during the war and they keep it in separate spheres. The sinking of the Tolten was shocking at the time. It was a merchant ship carrying nitrate (saltpeter). But not much is said about the victims of the sinking. Virtually no memorials or anything.

    It's true. At the dawn of WW2, Chile had strong military and civilian ties with Germany, which is why Chile did not break off diplomatic relationship with (and much less declare war to) Germany. The same happened with Italy to a lesser degree. During the rowdy '40s the Chilean Air Force had a lot of Junkers aircraft in their inventory - Ju-86 bombers, Junkers W34 transport aircraft and F13s purchased during the interwar years. It also had Italian Breda Ba.65 attack aircraft and Nardi FN.305 training/liaison aircraft. Cheers from Chile. I enjoyed the video.

    Hey man, I am Chilean and my dad was born in 1942. I have been intrigued about this specific question. I have asked my dad and actually the first memory he has is "the atom bombs" that happened in Japan, so that was indeed a huge thing even here. But as far as he is aware, people just lived their lives as if nothing happened, also most were poor. I think same might occur in WW3 even with access to videos and atrocities, people will just get used to it. Thanks so much for your video, sir. I love your videos.

I really liked how you covered the German (particularly Prussian) military tradition, which still remains strong in my country. Every September 19th (our national holiday equivalent to the 4th of July) there's a military parade in which the troops march like a modern Prussian army, its quite a show. Big thanks! 🇨🇱♥️

    I now this might be a little controversial, but first, the equivalent of July 4th is September 18th, and is not even our independence, is the day the "First National Government Convention" (Primera Junta Nacional de Gobierno) happened. September 19th is Army Day, and yes, you can see German influences, which can be hard to watch when we had a fascist dictatorship until 1990. Some people watch the September 19th parade on TV, but is very political, people on the left don't really care or totally hate it. I hope this can clarify somethings about our country :)

    Chile had historical good relations with Japan, there is a bust of our navy hero Arturo Prat in Japan due to his recognized bravery. And after the war Japan gave Chile a research vessel called “Itzumi”, meaning Emerald like our school navy vessel. So Chile declared war to Japan only in April ‘45 and never to the rest of the Axis.

    Excelent video, congratulations for your research. Unfortnately, just as in WWII, the War of the Pacific still plays a pivotal role in the current foreign policies of Peru and Bolivia towards Chile. I suggest you a book called "The end of the world: chilean stories of WWII" (idk if it's translated to english), that focuses on the personal perspective of, for example, german descendants that enrolled in the German Army, or a couple of sailors that fought in the US Navy. Also, there's a fascinating story during WWI regarding the SMS Dresden. I hope you enjoyed your time here, "we're the best country of Chile" as It is said ironically.

    i rembember germany and chile had a connection this why the chile army had Germany is Chile's prime trading partner in the EU . Its principal imports from Chile are raw materials (copper) and food, while industrial products are traditionally the main German exports to Chile. There is great interest in German culture and the German language in Chile. The early armed forces adopted many Prussian military traditions, and it was during this period that the Chilean military had many of its most famous victories. As a result, the drill features many 19th and early 20th century Prussian and German patterns.

    NO, don't force him to say it in spanish as default, there's no need to ruin his language as he's not butchering ours, learn proper language before teaching someone else because it makes you look arrogant and very ignorant, if you spot a flaw tell him, but you can't make him replace Chili for Chile to name the country because it's NOT his native tongue, both are not the same yet they are not interchangeable in the way you said it, spelling is one thing while pronounciation is very different and never the same as grammar because one teaches how it sounds when spoken and other clarifies how it's written correctly which doesn't mean it should be the same so your suggestion makes no sense.

    You should do one on Mexico! Mexico in the pre-war period provided lots of aid to the Republican forces in Spain, protested the annexation of Austria and the invasion of Ethiopia. Mexico sent one squadron, the "Escuadron 201" to help in the liberation of the Philippines and also had many people who volunteered with the armies of other allied nations. Some examples such as Francisco Tarazona Toran who was an ace pilot with the Republican Spanish air force, Luis Perez Gomez who fought with the RCAF. Mexico also provided the US with much needed labor assistance to keep factories and industry running during the time of war.

    I'm Chilean, and a history teacher in school always used to tell us this one fun fact about Chile's response to Pearl Harbor, which was changing a park's name from Parque Japonés (Japanese Park) to Parque Bustamante.

    Im chilean. My late grandma was a about 10-13 years old in the 40's and she told me that tea imports were disrupted from the UK/India (Chile is the biggest consumer of tea in Latin America) which was a shock. Also we sent lots of copper to the US, so we pretty much were on the allied side but didn't want to anger the axis.

    Tea became popular in Chile due to British workers in the expanding railroad industry and the plumbing industry: Hence "Gasfitera" Literally....gas fitting or gas fitter.

    There are many aspects mentioned by you. However there is a remarkable one (at least for me), Chile was pressured to break relations with the axis because of the threat coming from Bolivia-Peru, supported by US. I've never thought about it. Interesting point.
