The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, assured this Sunday that the Government is not going to “deviate” from the response to the DANA crisis and has attributed what happened during his visit with the kings to Paiporta to “absolutely marginal violent people.” . Sánchez has been evacuated from the area by his bodyguards after receiving a blow to the back, according to Executive sources.
“We are not going to deviate, despite what may happen to some absolutely marginal violent people, the whole of Valencian and Spanish citizens want to look forward, move their lives forward with an example of solidarity and responsibility,” said the president. Sánchez has reiterated that this is the main objective of the Government and that it will be carried out in collaboration with the regional and local authorities of the regions affected by DANA.
“What the majority of the population wants is the solution, commitments on the part of the institutions, and what they do is reject and marginalize any type of violence that can be perpetrated, like what we have unfortunately seen today. “said Sánchez in a brief intervention after the crisis committee meeting.
The president has highlighted that the population’s message is the one sent by “tens of thousands of people mobilizing to try to respond to many shortcomings and the needs and demands of the residents of the affected areas.” And he added that the Executive is not going to abandon its task of responding to the unprecedented catastrophe that has already left at least 214 dead.
“I want to convey to the whole of Valencian society and to the whole of Spanish society that today Spain is not going to deviate from its main objective,” said the president. “The main objective is to save lives, recover the bodies of people who may have died as a result of this natural tragedy and rebuild the province of Valencia and all areas of Spain that have been affected.”
The second vice president of the Government, María Jesús Montero, reiterated this Sunday that the Government “is focused on what matters” after this morning’s incidents in Paiporta. Both Pedro Sánchez and the kings and the president of the Generalitat Valenciana have been received with boos during their visit to the area affected by DANA and some of the attendees have thrown mud at them.
“Let us not allow radical groups to take advantage of people’s pain and divert us from what is priority,” Montero wrote in a message in X. “The Government, with [Pedro Sánchez] At the front, he is focused on what matters and that is accompanying the families of the victims and working for reconstruction,” he added.
