The Minister of Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge of Spain, Therese Riberadefended himself against the criticisms of the PP in an interview with Cadena SER and assured that, as soon as the Secretary of State called him to inform him of what was happening in Valencia, he contacted Carlos Mazón, president of the Generalitat Valenciana, but it cost him “up to four calls locate you“.
Finally he managed to talk to her and he told her that “everything was fine“, but that this afternoon “everything had been rushed.” After that, he asked her to apologize and that she would call him in ten minutes. “I can’t speak now,” concluded the Valencian the call with the minister, who confirmed that after that, she hasn’t heard from him anymore. “Which I understood perfectly,” the socialist said in the interview.
These statements come on the same day that the Popular Party accuses him of not wanting to explain their actions against the DANA that devastated Valencia, and they said it in reference to the fact that he will not go to the Senate next week to respond to a request to appear from the popular party. They asked the third vice-president of the Government to explain her intervention a few hours before the DANA. The popular accuse the vice-president of having “hidden” throughout the DANA administration.
This quote is linked to the fact that the hydrographic confederations, which control the river beds and the level of reservoirs, depend on its ministry, that of Ecological Transition.
