Pedro Sánchez: “Doñana is not touched” | Spain

The Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez (PSOE), has assured that his coalition government with Unidas Podemos and the European Union will not allow the PP’s plan, supported by Vox, to expand irrigation in the “environmental jewel” to prosper. of Donana. Sánchez had criticized in Burgos the “denialism” of climate change wielded by the right, particularly the extreme right of Vox, which occupies the Junta de Castilla y León in alliance with the PP. This Wednesday, PP and Vox have given the green light in the Andalusian Parliament to the process to expand irrigation.

Sánchez has spoken in an environmental key to censor the plan of the PP of Andalusia, a territory that Juan Manuel Moreno Bonilla governs with an absolute majority, to expand irrigation through the Doñana national park, an “environmental jewel of Andalusia, Spain and Europe”. The socialist secretary general has seen that Vox, a partner of the PP in Castilla y León, never climate change, while in Andalusia Moreno Bonilla “acts as if it did not exist.” “Doñana is not touched, it is the heritage of the Andalusians and all the Spaniards”, he has settled. The president has alluded to youth mobilization against the climate emergency, an opportunity for balanced development, and to the gender perspective that he appreciates in measures such as raising the minimum wage, increasing pensions or labor reform. “This is a feminist government,” he said. “The problems of today’s young people are not in the pocket of their grandparents, but in education or employability”, he assured, asking “to defend with the vote what the majority thinks”.

The president has intervened this afternoon in an act of the Burgos socialists, in his second visit to the community this week after going to Segovia on Monday. In both cities the PSOE holds the mayoralty and the polls show equality between the contenders. Sánchez stressed that the indicators “smile at Spain more than at any other European country” and praised the employment data, which in the last month has touched 20.5 million contributors, an all-time high. In addition, unemployment in March was at the lowest level of the last 15 years and was supported by the creation of 50% of permanent contracts, a rare record in Spain, where temporary employment has come to be the protagonist of 90% of contracts. laboratory. The high office has been “proud” of this direction and has thanked a “success” corresponding to companies, workers or the self-employed despite the “usual doomsayers”, alluding to the right. The Socialist Secretary General has claimed “economic growth, job creation and social peace” as the work of his Executive.

The PSOE cover has a connection to the middle of the field and has an eco-transition strip as a “source of opportunities”. Sánchez had considered “lying” that the vice president of the Junta de Castilla y León, Juan García-Gallardo from Burgos, says that carbon dioxide does not pollute.

The Minister of Ecological Transition, Teresa Ribera, had crossed out the Andalusian measure, backed by the ultras, as “provocation” and “disloyalty” and has accused the regional president of acting with “the arrogance of the gentleman.” According to Sánchez, “they govern against science, against the interest of their own territory and against European legislation”, he has disapproved, and has warned that the central Executive, together with the European government, is not going to allow it.

In his speech, he has affected the good employment and economic growth data to try to mobilize his electorate for the municipal and regional elections on May 29. The leader, who has carried out the agenda of events for all of Spain, has reactivated “economic growth, job creation and social peace” in the face of the “noise” from the right, which denies them “management”. significant,

Sánchez’s words in favor of “social and territorial cohesion” have been interrupted by some protesters who have momentarily entered the monastery of San Juan where the appearances are being held. The group has been bothering with whistles from outside, but has not prevented the ordinary development of the act. The leader has continued to attack the “apocalyptic speeches of the usual doomsayers” and has stressed that this same Wednesday the International Monetary Fund “little suspected of being left-wing” has raised the forecast for economic growth this year and the next.

Figure after figure, forecast after forecast, the data smiles at Spain. “I ask that we look to the future with caution and hope, we are growing more, creating more jobs and lowering inflation thanks to government policies”, he insisted, “in the face of noise, insults, disqualifications and blockades”. The president, as he did on Monday in Segovia, has compared the gesture of the right “with neoliberal responses” to the 2013 financial crisis against the model applied by his Executive before the coronavirus or the war in Ukraine. Sánchez has written the energy tax reduction for workers or businessmen and has claimed the Iberian exception and the reduction that it entails in the energy premium and has listed health or educational investments for the regions: “That is the socialist and progressive response , strengthen the welfare state. The leader has praised having obtained 30,000 million euros of useful European funds for the projects of the municipalities despite the fact that the right wing branded him as a “pedigueño”.

Together with the president of the Executive, the PSOE leader of the community, Luis Tudanca from Burgos, has vindicated Daniel de la Rosa as mayor of the city. “On May 28 there are two options, either the PSOE governs or the PP with the extreme right,” he announced, calling the PP an “accomplice” of Vox’s policies. A group of protesters has tried to disturb during the speeches of the socialist charges with whistles that have been heard between the words of the speakers. De la Rosa has asked that the “ballot” to manage the pandemic or govern against the PP as “the greatest enemy of the city of Burgos” be taken into account.
