Statement on the Wildfires in Chile

Jill and I are deeply saddened by the loss of life and devastation caused by the ongoing wildfires in Chile. Our thoughts and prayers are with the people impacted by this terrible tragedy and the first responders working to fight the fires and support displaced families and individuals. My administration is in contact with our Chilean partners, and the United States is ready to provide necessary assistance to the Chilean people. The United States stands with Chile at this difficult time.
