Mazón says that Aragonés "is insulting if he comes here to say that Guardamar del Segura is Catalonia"

The Valencian president has pointed out that "if the summary of the Catalan president's speech here is to say that Guardamar del Segura is Catalonia, it is not only nonsense and a daydream, it is an insult." The Valencian president was referring to a phrase uttered by Aragonés who said, literally, that "if you cared about Catalonia, gentlemen of the PP, you would be at our side to promote the Catalan language, in Catalonia and in the rest of the territories that we share it, from Salses to Guardamar and from Fraga to Mahón, he would not object to it being official in the courts of justice, in the Congress of Deputies and in the European institutions".

In his speech, Mazón has charged against the previous Botànic government, whom he has accused of activating "a Valencian-style process, it had volunteers; public interest gave way to doctrine, to the worst sectarianism that there were good and bad Valencians." He added that Ximo Puig's executive "preferred to be delegates of the Catalan process rather than representatives of the Valencians." "They wanted to be the vanguard of that dream of the Països Catalans."

Carlos Mazón has denounced that with the hypothetical amnesty that the PSOE negotiates with the Catalan independentists for those convicted of the 'procés', "generosity is punished and selfishness is rewarded." “We do not know what Government Spain will have, nor that Spain will have this Government, because it is clear who is going to pay the bill and who will collect it, but not what that payment is going to cost us,” he said.

“In the worst of times, in an international environment more uncertain than ever, the candidate to preside over this country chooses uncertainty, because it is soft, what the world now demands is not a scenario of more division, but of unity,” he stressed.

“Every show of weakness we give will be seen as an opportunity for those dangerous and populist speeches that feed on disillusionment,” he considered. “This investiture, by whoever is the protagonist, has become the denial of that dialogue to offer it to those who impose their diagnosis, their criteria and their own solutions to the challenges and difficulties that affect a country,” he added.
