Reconstruction, Emergencies, Communication, Justice, Industry, Employment and Tourism. These are the bases on which the president of the Generalitat Valenciana Carlos Mazon was developed by the government which will have the monumental task of regaining complete autonomy after the greatest catastrophe in its history: the recovery after DANA that October 29 devastated dozens of communities.

Ruth Merinos maintains the Ministry of Finance and the Economy. It is based on impeccable work in these areas. And Mazón recognized it by giving it continuity. At the same time, it relieved him in the most complicated area, that of communication.
To all, Mazón sent a message as clear as it was direct: “From today, you put yourself at the service of the Valencians to carry out the most important service of your life” that “will meet vital needs, because they are“.
He also specified that the action of his new government must be deployed “with all guarantees and without losing a minute, and within a reasonable time”. context of rage and pain that we all understand and accept, however bitter it may be.“.
