This week it has been known that the Ministry of Ecological Transition will only authorize the transfer of 7.5 cubic hectometres of the Tajo al Segura this month, equivalent to the volume reserved for urban supply, instead of the 20 cubic hectometres that could be transferred .

Therefore, this month there will be no water from the Tagus for irrigation in this area of ​​the southeast.

Faced with this situation, the spokesman of the MC Cartagena municipal group and general secretary, José López, stressed that "the national parties are clear that they are interested in the votes of Castilla-La Mancha, while their branches in the region continue with the posture; When he does not govern his party in Madrid, he calls for 'water for all' and when it is governed, excuses are sought. "

Lopez has denounced that "it is shameful that the PSOE invent damage in the transfer to hide his decision not to send water to the Levant, when the head of the Tagus is 190 hm3 above what the Law marks to transfer, as it is equally shameful that the PP destroyed the salmoreoducto to cover its negligence ".

"The intention of the PSOE is clear, to kill the transfer, and already announces that it will repeat zero transfer in December," he assured.

The mayor of Cartagena has indicated that "it is not watering this month, it is that we, if we are supportive, our agriculture meets, every drop counts and takes advantage, even pay the rate comes or does not come water, but when it should come , we demand that he come, they do not want to leave us or manage our water poverty ".

Worrying future of the Campo de Cartagena

José López has called attention to a more than worrisome situation: "the agro-food industry of Campo de Cartagena is mortally wounded if there is no change in this policy".

"It is not a problem of agriculture, it is everyone's problem, if they manage to end our primary sector they will end our economy, they will make us even poorer and the depopulation will eventually come," said the Cartagena spokesman.

José López concluded by stating that "it is about solidarity and a model of the State, national parties do not serve us, their leaders are commercials that sell us the motorcycle while they are hired to the highest bidder, which is why MC supports any act of mobilization and vindication made against those who deny us water, speculate with our future.
