Carlos Altamirano, who was close to Allende, recalls that prior to the coup Allende would have dismissed Altamirano's suggestion that in case of a coup to seek refuge in a loyalist regiment and fight back from there.[1] In the words of Altamirano Allende also did not want "to do as so many dictators and presidents of Latin America, that is to grab a briefcase full of money and take a plane out the country".[1] Allende was an admirer of José Manuel Balmaceda, a Chilean president who died by suicide in face of his defeat in the Chilean Civil War of 1891. According to Altamirano, Allende was "obsessed with the attitude of Balmaceda".[1]
