The President of Castile-La Mancha, Emiliano García-PageI went this Thursday to Letur (Albacete) to announce reconstruction plans in areas affected by DANA. There, the flood killed six people and one of the neighbors blamed Page for his handling of the weather crisis.
“We cannot come and say that we are going to do better. You don’t know how to do it. Your yes specifically for Castilla-La Mancha. You are very good, but higher up they are not doing well and you need to see it now. “All problems must be resolved,” a neighbor from Letur told the Castilian-Manchego president, according to La Tribuna de Albacete.
In the same conversation, the woman also criticized Page for going to Letur to announce housing reconstructions while six town residents died.
“Six lives were lost that should not have been. And it’s more important than reconstruction. It doesn’t help that you’re doing better. Someone else has to come in and do it better.. “You didn’t know how to do things right,” said the neighbor as Page tried to explain, as shown in images taken by Atresmedia.
Faced with this, the president of Castilla-La Mancha, whose Executive did not send any alert to warn the populationassured that “in this country it may take time to draw conclusions, but they will eventually be drawn.”
Page wants to “leave things better than they were”
During his visit to the city of Albacete, the regional president indicated that the aspiration now is to “leave things better than they were”, with the exception of the human lives lost in the region, at number seven, although the urgency It will only end when the identification process is completely completed, in reference to the three yet unidentified bodies found in Letur.
On the other hand, he thanked all the troops moved to Letur because “the work has been enormous”, citing both the military who were occasionally in the city of Albacete and those who have already traveled to Valencia, who have given “an extraordinary example”, such as the Civil Protection, the environmental agents of the region, the workers of the Provincial Delegation and the operators of the heavy machinery which had to penetrate into the river beds.
“All the operators that we have, from one service or another, to all, we will, when the time comes, have the opportunity to offer them recognition, undoubtedly of any kind, both here and in Mira, as in Villel de Mesa,” said García-Page, who highlighted the “enormous work” that everyone has accomplished.
Likewise, he highlighted “the enormous effort of solidarity”, which must at some point be “revealed”, carried out by financial entities, companies, organizations, institutions and individuals in a private capacity who offer to collaborate or who make money, resources or material means available “beyond personal and emotional support”.
