The third vp of the Government and Minister of Ecological Transition, Teresa Ribera, has rejected and responded to the assault by the PP parliamentary spokesperson, Miguel Tellado, that she has not set foot in Valencia in 21 days, defending that for the reason that first day of the dana she has been “working in his office to resolve the needs and emergencies” attributable to the harm. Faced with the accusation that she didn’t perform works to situation the Poyo ravine, whose overflow brought about the flood, she has defended that it was the Rajoy Government that prevented the works when it dropped the environmental influence declaration of these works that she signed. as Secretary of State in 2011.

Tellado had known as her “incompetent, intransigent and selfish” and accused her of “annulling” in 2021 the Poyo ravine conditioning venture, which “would have saved many lives.” “You annulled it due to political intransigence,” he stated. Ribera has rejected the accusation concerning the ravine, saying that the closest she got here to those works was when she signed the environmental influence assertion in 2011, which expired in 2017 as a result of the Rajoy Government “dropped it.”

Later, the favored deputy César Sánchez has blamed him for all of the accountability for the flood and for not declaring a nationwide emergency. “She proved oblivious to what was happening in Valencia,” he stated. “It is a shame that even the Japanese Embassy understands a red notice from Aemet, but it is so difficult for the person responsible for civil protection and emergencies, the Valencian Generalitat, to react,” he stated. He has criticized that the PP accuses the officers of Aemet and the Júcar Hydrographic Confederation of “the incompetence of those responsible for Civil Protection and Emergencies” of the Generalitat. “If they consider that it is climate dogmatism, if they consider that the information is not reliable, if they make fun of the red notices, it is difficult to draw conclusions that prepare us to react well to the next calamity,” he concluded.
