Resumen
It analyses the humanitarian reason that wielded Chile to offer shelter and protection to the former leader of the German Democratic Republic (DDR), Erich Honecker, at the embassy in Moscow from the end of 1991 until mid-1992. The issue is scarce addressed by the Chilean and German internationalistic historiography, it is based on unpublished Chilean diplomatic sources - the James Holger file-, Chilean and German press of the period, interviews with politicians and diplomats, parliamentary sessions of Chile and Germany, and the digital Presidential archive of Patricio Aylwin, among others. It reveals the arguments of a strategy that appealed to the health condition of former East German hierarch and the confusing circumstances that ended up exhausting that way of solution, then replaced by legal/diplomatic efforts between Chile, Germany and Russia, those who ended up solving the matter.
