This morning, the spokesman of the Municipal Group MC Cartagena, José López, has valued the news known yesterday, after the meeting held by the Board of Directors of the Cartagena Alta Velocidad, in which the regional and central government agreed to impose the arrival of the AVE to Cartagena on surface and in a term that, now, have fixed in 2023.
The mayor has begun arguing that his training had requested, early today and by registration, the convocation by the Mayor of a Board of Spokespersons and an extraordinary plenary session to hear the pronouncement of the Corporation before the outrage consummated yesterday .
"That day," López began, "we will return to the positioning of the Corporation, in what will surely become another fixed photo."
Then, "after the demagogic statements that we had to endure yesterday," the Cartagena leader, has clarified several points.
"On the one hand, I would like to point out that what was raised in 2015, as mayor, was a 'provisional' and 'urgent' solution for the High Speed ​​to arrive in the region that same year, it was a gesture of solidarity with all who, now, those who drown and corner Cartagena use it to justify their abuse, taking it out of context in a tortuous manner, "he began arguing.
Last option, without burying, but from Los Camachos
Then, has specified that what happened is "another proof of the colonialist policies of PP and PSOE that only want Cartagena to use it, to support the weight of this region with our contribution to the regional and national GDP, for the use of our potential and our history for the benefit of others and never of Cartagena. "
He has continued to conclude that "what underlies all this is the evidence that without undertaking the Benipa's baipas, a ridiculous work by quantity compared to the magnitude of the project, we will still not be able to bring the AVE to Cartagena".
Subsequently, the spokesman of MC has criticized that "the unreason to which the parties that depend on higher instances are led to reject a proposal defended by the PP in 2012. Today we impose a surface arrival to strangle the natural growth In the worst case, we could accept your arrival without burying, but from Los Camachos and only if it is to shorten deadlines, but never definitively .. Unless the motivation is to hinder sine die the future ZAL in that Polygon ".
If the refusal occurs, it is obvious to deduce that "it would benefit a person, the counselor Patricio Valverde, the promoter of the ZAL of Murcia, which, as is known, was conceived to aspire to appropriate the economic activity of the Port.
Fear of possible recovery of Mandarache project
José López regretted that the superior administrations have definitively "removed their masks." We fear that the ultimate will is to recover the Mandarache project, to which all the parties resigned before a notary, with the exception of the PP, for maintaining the interests of the usual, we know that a group of companies behind those who are involved in Punic still have interests in the CC1. As we know that there are family interests of PP politicians to work on that the hypothetical arrival of the train does not affect his businesses, located next to the current station ".
At this juncture, the Cartagena spokesman has declared that "MC will remain unchanged in his position, together with the neighbors, to demand a reversal of the ignominy that we knew yesterday. Today we will meet with the neighbors to show our support and get At your disposal, let the executioners of Cartagena know that we will not allow them to jail us and play with the future of all. "
