Former president of the Community of Madrid Esperanza Aguirre thanked “the unspeakable Francisco Franco” to divert the Turia river canal because, if he had not done so, as he said, his floods due to DANA would have also affected the Valencian capital.
“Thanks to God and the unspeakable Francisco Franco who diverted the course of the Turia, because, otherwise, Valencia would also have been the capital“, he said on Wednesday in statements to the media, who questioned him about the government’s actions after the DANA in Valencia.
Aguirre criticized this the inhabitants of the municipalities concerned are “abandoned” and that “instead of respecting the national defense law and sending the army”, the government gave command to the EMU. It is precisely because of this management, demanded the resignation of the Minister of DefenseMarguerite Robles.
In this sense, he questioned the fact that the general head of the EMU was put in charge of the operation, in place of the chief of defense staff.
“”Why didn’t the helicopters go bring water, bring food, bring medicine, bring all of this to inaccessible places? “Why didn’t the Eastern Sapper Regiment go and repair the roads?” he asked, while demanding Robles’ immediate resignation.
Immediately afterwards, Aguirre said he had “the impression that the government and its partners do not want to see soldiers in uniform with the Spanish flag in the street: “It’s a national shame”.
