Vox does not believe that the president of the Generalitat Valenciana, Carlos Mazón, has carried out good management of the DANA that has devastated several municipalities in this community and has left more than 200 dead. Although they claim that Mazón has been “negligent” and has shown “great incompetence” when it comes to dealing with the drama, his former government partners are not asking for his head. This Monday, the national spokesperson for the far-right party, José Antonio Fúster, made it clear that they are not going to support a possible motion of censure either, as Compromís has suggested: “We, with separatist parties, are not even going around the corner, “Do you want it clearer?” Fúster stated in the press conference after the Vox Political Action Committee.
The Valencians, who have 15 deputies in the Corts Valencianes, have made themselves available to the PSPV to register the motion in the Autonomous Chamber. The decision was announced by his spokesperson, Joan Baldóví, after verifying that Mazón refuses to resign and dedicated his speech last Friday in Les Cortes to shaking off responsibility for flood management and holding state agencies responsible for a late alert.
In that debate, both the socialists and Compromís demanded that Mazón leave office immediately. The PSPV spokesperson, for his part, asked the PP to replace him with another “technical” president on a temporary basis until new elections were called later. However, Vox was not very belligerent, although it recognized that the president of the Valencians had acted “late” demonstrating “incompetence and “negligence” in his management. “Mazón’s explanations in Les Cortes seemed insufficient to us, which is why we asked for a commission of investigation: we want to know what the errors and incompetence of the catastrophe were,” Fúster stressed, who did not want to assess Mazón’s changes in his team, hiding behind that “the remodeling of the Government of the Generalitat are its internal issues.”
Vox, of course, has registered in the regional parliament the request for an investigative commission to clarify the actions carried out by all the institutions and, where appropriate, settle “responsibilities” that arise from it.
From the beginning of the tragedy, Abascal’s people have focused all their attention on the actions of the central government, which they accuse of “criminal negligence.” To the point that the extreme right leader himself announced last week the presentation of a “criminal complaint” against the President of the Government and his cabinet for “reckless homicide” and “omission of the duty to provide relief” after the Dana. “From minute one we have said that Pedro Sánchez is the main person responsible.” [de la tragedia]the criminal negligence belongs to Pedro Sánchez. “That is the one we want to see sitting on the bench,” said Fúster.
Another of Vox’s targets is the Vice President of the Government and Minister of Ecological Transition, Teresa Ribera, who is running to be Vice President of the European Commission. Abascal’s party is redoubling its efforts to prevent his appointment. For now, the European Popular Group of conservatives, where the PP is located, has managed to paralyze it. However, Núñez Feijóo has said that he is open to supporting Ribera if she “commits to resign if she is prosecuted by Dana.”
This Monday, the national spokesperson for the extreme right once again attacked Ribera, demanding that the PP not give in to pressure in the end and block his appointment. Abascal’s party insists that Ribera has been “missing” during the key days of the tragedy and is not fit for office because she is responsible for the fact that “hydraulic infrastructure has not been developed in the Júcar basin” and that “ have reinforced the infrastructures already present” within the National Hydrological Plan. Vox also continues to promote the hoax that Sánchez “destroys dams” and “empties reservoirs,” which has generated this dramatic situation.
