Until recently, experts thought the newly minted Gabriel Boric administration would have little trouble midwifing the new constitutional text through the plebiscite. They reasoned that, fresh from his nearly 12-point victory against conservative José Antonio Kast in the 2021 elections, Mr. Boric would have enough political capital to sell it to voters.

In early May, as China assumed the rotating presidency of the U.N. Security Council, permanent representative Zhang Jun painted a grim picture of the deteriorating situation in a neighboring country if it continues to devolve into turmoil. “With further escalation of the tension, there will be more confrontation and with more confrontation, there will be more violence, and with more violence, there will be more casualties, and then we may go further down the wrong direction,” Zhang said....
