SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, Sep. 7 (EUROPA PRESS) –
The parliamentary spokesman for the Canary Coalition (CC), José Miguel Barragán, said this Wednesday that Ángel Víctor Torres leads an “ungovernable” pact in the Government of the Canary Islands that also “works very little” in the face of the “most difficult autumn” of the last decade.
At a press conference on the occasion of the start of the political course, he pointed out that the Executive is characterized by “unfulfilled expectations” and “submission” to the central government, also stressing that 2022 will not be “the year of the comeback” given the “uncertainties” that hang over the fall and winter due to the possible energy crisis and rising prices.
He has pointed out that “there are not the best” in the regional government and has cast doubt on the ability to manage European funds and to diagnose the economic and social situation of each island.
Barragán has warned of an increase in African migration in the coming months due to hunger on the continent, since more than 25% of the wheat from Ukraine and Russia has been lost, as well as “climate refugees” due to global warming, time that has pointed out that the impact on tourism in the British and German markets for the coming months is still unknown.
He has indicated that his group is not going to lend itself “to the pim pam pum” with the Government of the Canary Islands and is going to maintain, aside from criticism, a proactive line, whose main priorities for the new period of sessions will be to contain inflation, measures of support for SMEs and the self-employed, further developing the REF, taking good care of migrants to avoid xenophobic outbreaks or health and educational care.
The nationalist spokesman has also charged against “the lack of efficiency” in the reconstruction of La Palma, making the central government ugly for not having sent any representative to the parliamentary commission, as with the migration commission, not even the Government delegate . “Does President Torres take that attitude for good?” He asked himself.
It has made the Government of the Canary Islands ugly that it takes refuge in “propaganda” so as not to face the economic reality that is coming, with “little action” while “pessimism” spreads among businessmen and citizens.
Regarding relations between Spain and Morocco, he has indicated that the latest agreement “weakens” Spain because it has “cooled” relations with Algeria and harms the purchase of gas and in the specific case of the Canary Islands, migration has increased and has intensified the war in Western Sahara.
Barragán is confident that “progress” will be made in the water delimitation commission and with respect to the transfer of powers in Coasts he has been “concerned” because “it seems” that the autonomous community “has been left with some garages and part of a building in La Palma” and without margin of decision in the planning of the coastline.
