During the [[2019 Chilean State of Emergency]] he was against the Chilean Armed Forces and supported the agreement of the 15 of November of the same year that made possible the Constitutional change, something that was viewed as too moderate by the far-left since the agreement was made with the center-right.

=== Sexual behavior ===
Boric was acused of being a sexual stalker in 2012. At that time, the complainant was an anthropology student, when he was president of the Student Federation of the University of Chile.
The complaint was confirmed by the president of Social Convergence, Alondra Arellano, to the electronic newspaper El Líbero. She said that "without the consent of the victim" she would not refer to the events that occurred, when said media asked her for a tweet in which she declared that she was available to "initiate a procedure" regarding the behaviors attributed to her party's standard-bearer.
According to the publication, the leader E. Schneider, a transexual deputy, also confirmed on her Twitter account that the facts were "true." Another leader of the Boric community confirmed that after the fact was known, at least two "funas" were carried out against the flag bearer. One in Santiago, and another in Magallanes.
The events occurred in 2012 during coordination activities of the Voluntary Work team of the Federation of the University of Chile. The victim, Macarena Castañeda, is a feminist.
She consulted the deputy team for this situation, she sent the request to the National Directorate of Social Convergence, where they specified that "there are no submitted."<ref>[https://ellibero.cl/actualidad/la-acusacion-de-acoso-contra-boric-que-validaron-dos-candidatas-a-diputadas-del-fa-y-que-desaparecio-de-las-redes/ Emplazan a Gabriel Boric a aclarar denuncia de acoso sexual]</ref><ref>[https://ellibero.cl/actualidad/la-acusacion-de-acoso-contra-boric-que-validaron-dos-candidatas-a-diputadas-del-fa-y-que-desaparecio-de-las-redes/ La acusación de acoso contra Boric que validaron dos candidatas a diputadas del FA y que desapareció de las redes]</ref>
=== Support of Left-wing Terrorism ===
{{Main article|Left Wing Terrorism in Chile}}
In November 2018, Gabriel Boric, along with deputy Maite Orsini, went to France, and visited Ricardo Palma Salamanca, a member of the terrorist left-wing group 'Manuel Rodríguez Patriotic Front', who was convicted for the murder of Senator [[Jaime Guzmán]] in the 90s, and that he remains in asylum status in the European country.
The news generated controversy and criticism towards Boric, especially from the parliamentarians of the [[Independent Democratic Union]] (UDI) and [[National Renewal]] (RN), who, through the Ethics Commission, announced sanctions against the deputies, risking a fine of 1,300,000 pesos.
Even so, [[Democratic Revolution]] (one of the main parties of his coalition), issued a statement that Boric and Orsini made the visit to Palma Salamanca under personal criteria and not on behalf of the coalition or their respective parties.
In December 2018, he was summoned by former deputy José Antonio Kast after taking a photograph in 2017 with a shirt that showed the image of Jaime Guzmán shot, later apologizing. In March 2019 he was sanctioned with a 5% discount on his diet for the Ethics and Transparency Commission of the Chamber of Deputies.
