SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, Sep 6 (EUROPA PRESS) –
The President of the Government of the Canary Islands, Ángel Víctor Torres, has shown this Monday his desire that the quadripartite that started the Legislature –PSOE, NC, Sí Podemos and ASG – arrive until the next elections despite the “movements” and ” soap operas “that are always open in the Canary Islands, especially in summer.
“My will is to end the Legislature with the government that began,” he indicated in an interview with ‘Canarias Radio La Autonómica’ in which he points out that he cannot “martyr himself” for issues that do not depend on himself.
“I closed a government for 4 years, it is progressive, and I am satisfied, it does not mean that it cannot be done better but it is working hard,” he added.
Torres has once again defended the management of the Minister of Social Rights, Noemí Santana (Sí Podemos), since the latest data point to an “improvement”, for example, with the budget execution or the hiring of 100 people to speed up the dependent waiting lists.
He pointed out that Santana has a “difficult job” because a situation has been collected since 2006 in which in the Canary Islands they have always been “the last” in the management of the dependency since no funds arrived, so “it was difficult to overcome.”
For this reason, he has pointed out that the Executive must “give him time”, the four years that correspond to him after being democratically elected, “and from there put the note and draw the conclusions.”
Torres maintains that at the end of his term they will do a job “better than many think” and will leave the dependency “better” than how they took it.
