The president of the Generalitat Valenciana, Carlos Mazón, thanked the citizens affected by DANA the “affection received and encouragement” after being booed in his visit with kings to areas affected by the disaster.
“We will continue to work tirelessly on reconstruction. Today, with the support of Their Majesties, we visited the residents of Chiva and Utiel. I appreciate the love received and the encouragement“, wrote the president in a message he shared on his X account.
This gratitude comes hours after Mazón accompanied the kings during the visit toChiva and Utieltwo of the cities hardest hit by DANA on October 29.
There, even though he tried to stay in the background, the president of the Generalitat received some angry cries. “Mazon, resignation” and even: “Resign, murderer, resign.” Thus, among the applause and acclamations addressed to the kings, one could also hear insults towards the regional president, such as “useless” or “scoundrel”.
“Mazón, get out”, “we don’t want you here” or “in prison like your friend Zaplana, you should be there”, are also among the cries that could be heard, as well as the reproach “that you are going eat”, an apparent allusion to the meal at which the regional leader would have been present on the day of the tragedy, when the emergency command post was already assembled.
The atmosphere, in any case, was very different from two weeks ago in Paiportawhere serious incidents were recorded, including mud throwing and an attack against the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, who They forced to suspend the visit of the kings.
