It’s hard to believe that someone who was missing during the most critical hours of DANA; that he changed the version of his whereabouts several times; that he telephoned the mayor of Cullera “in a happy and frivolous tone”; that has been denied by the AEMET, the CHJ and the UME and that has not yet asked for forgiveness, can look into the eyes of the Valencians. Don’t you find the pain, guilt or shame unbearable?
Nuria Montes (Industry Minister) has fallen and Salomé Pradas (Justice and Interior Minister and head of emergencies) will fall. The first despised/insulted the DANA victims a few hours after the Valencia tragedy when, with zero empathy, she asked them to stay at home and not go to the pavilion set up by the Generalitat as a morgue to ask for information about their relatives. . The second admitted in an interview on Á Punt, Valencian public television, that she was unaware that an instrument existed to send alerts to citizens’ cell phones and warn of the risk of flooding.
The president of the Generalitat, Carlos Mazón, who did not comfort either locals or strangers when he appeared before the Cortes, as Feijóo had predicted, has decided that others will assume responsibility for the catastrophe because apparently he does not feel responsible for nothing.
It is hard to believe that someone who was missing during the most critical two and a half hours of the afternoon of October 29; that he changed his version of his whereabouts several times; that he telephoned the mayor of Cullera “in a happy and frivolous tone”; that has been denied with data and official documents by the AEMET, the Júcar Hydrographic Confederation and the UME and that has not yet been able to ask for forgiveness, can stare into the eyes of the Valencians. Can you sleep without problems of conscience? Don’t you feel anguish? Don’t you find the pain, guilt or shame unbearable?
It is also hard to believe that Feijóo is going to fold his arms in the face of such indignity and maintain equidistance in the distribution of blame. Beyond the fact that the Government of Spain decided, as it has defended, not to take command given the seriousness of the events for reasons of operationality and effectiveness, no one who has followed the chronology of the events can be equidistant on this matter. Mazón had the powers and had the instrument at his disposal to have prevented, not the material damage caused by the floods, but the number of deaths from exceeding 200.
And he still says that he will assume “political responsibilities” if he is not able to lead the recovery of the devastated areas. The debt that he owes to the Valencians and that is demanded of him is not for the destroyed homes, nor for the destroyed roads, nor for the vehicles that were run over… His concern is the deaths that he could have avoided if he had been in his place and not in the booth. of a restaurant, in its first version, isolated and in the penultimate version, “aware of everything.” Both versions are unpresentable because it is so irresponsible not to have suspended the lunch in question, already knowing, from the alarms communicated by the meteorological services and the media, the extent of the floods, as well as being informed of what was happening, not giving instructions for activate the alert and not appear until two and a half hours later.
Contrary to what they would like on Génova Street, although they do not admit it, Mazón is determined to endure with the reconstruction as an alibi. And Feijóo, to swallow. Or not. It will be seen. In the popular universe there are suspicions that the leader of the PP is not in favor of Mazón hindering, for the second time, his electoral possibilities, as he already did with the Government pact with Vox a month and a half before the last general elections, and that He will not give up his efforts until the Valencian leaves. This Monday, before the National Board of Directors of the PP, he asked him for “humility” and urged him to continue “recognizing errors and assuming responsibilities” because “there are no more mistakes.” It is, the popular ones warn, the first warning of many more to come. In private and in public. Those who know the Galician, know that if he has demonstrated anything in his political career, it is that he neither forgets nor forgives and that, no matter how much he also attacks the Sánchez Government, he has drawn a cross on Mazón’s head, an unequivocal symbol that he has already He has sentenced him to death (politically, it is understood). The only question is knowing when he will perform the adagio.
