Asked about his management of Tragedy of DANAthe president of the Valencian Generalitat Carlos Mazón continues to do stupid things. “You can’t transfer information if you don’t have it. It’s metaphysically impossible,” he said in an interview with 13TV.
The “popular” once again points to the Hydrographic Confederation of Júcar for the late alert addressed to the population. “At 6:50 p.m., it was an hour ago since the level was above 1,000 and the control center did not know it. It takes 50 minutes to send an email to 112,” he accuses, ignoring yet another times that Hydrographic confederations only provide data and are not responsible for sending alerts.
Mazón apologizes in the email with which the Confederation reported the flow of the Poyo ravine, even though the organization was updating this data in real time on its website.
The Secretary of State for the Environment, Hugo Morán, blamed the failure on the Generalitat itself. “If you don’t have this information, it’s because those who should have transmitted it to him, I suppose, did not transmit it to him (…) This cannot continue to be supported because the information was in real time,” he explained in an interview with Al Rojo Vivo.
The central government ensures that the information was sufficient. “This is the same information with which the Provincial Delegation, the town halls, the university itself make the decision to activate the alert protocol…” adds Morán, because some town halls warned in time to the population.
The bottom line is that Mazón arrived two hours late to the emergency committee. According to eldiario.es, he was nowhere to be found and when he arrived, it was necessary to explain to him the topics discussed.
A Mazón that the PP implicitly disavows by asking Sánchez to declare a state of emergency. Today, to the question of whether the PP supports the Valencian president, the answer is lukewarm. “What is beyond doubt is that Mazón gave everything he had from the beginning,” Cuca Gamarra, secretary general of the PP, said at a press conference.
