Mazón urges the opposition to “fight the big issues” such as financing

The president of the Generalitat, Carlos Mazón, has stated that “we have a historic opportunity for the Valencian Community to establish itself as a collective project away from conflict, an example of coexistence and a model of balance.”

In the conference he gave at the Manuel Broseta Meeting Club, the head of the Consell defended a Valencian Community of coexistence, calm and generous "with a collective project of proximity, freedom, diversity, balance, of deep respect for the people and generosity with the development of Spain.”

During his speech, the president of the Generalitat made reference to the management stage of the previous Consell to point out that “the pillars of coexistence were put in danger with policies of division, imposition and disloyalty” and where “doctrine was superfluous.”

In that sense, he has stated that if the change had not occurred "the Valencian Community would be the Navarra of the Basque Country, perhaps a toll to pay, due to complicity with the separatist process."

For all this, it has opted for “a Community of balance in its development, between our capitals, between our productive sectors, between the coast and the interior.” “Balance in the border: together with Castilla-León, we are the Autonomous Community that adds more bordering Communities. Murcia, Castilla-La Mancha, Aragon, Catalonia and the Balearic Islands. And ultimately Madrid, with the AVE, is also one,” added the head of the Consell.

For the president, “we have the responsibility, the privilege and the opportunity to be a decisive Community for all of them” and he recalled that our roads, our ports, with the corridor, “are decisive connection axes for more than 19 million people.” .

An exceptional land

Likewise, he has described the Valencian Community as an “exceptional land” and has referred to the fact that its central position in the national Mediterranean arc “must build an advantage of first-order progress in our development.”

Likewise, he mentioned that we occupy the transit and connection hub of an area that itself brings together: 46% of the national GDP, 47% of the Spanish population, 48% of the industrial production of all of Spain, the 50% of the gross added value of agricultural production, 60% of the exports that go to Europe and more than half of all Spanish maritime traffic.

In his speech, Carlos Mazón has expressed his commitment and conviction that the Valencian Community “play an exceptional role in the coming years” and has reiterated his willingness to continue trying to reach agreements with all political forces, in crucial matters such as water and financing, to “guarantee that our territory fulfills this exceptional role.”

Along these lines, he has urged the Valencian political class to invest their effort and time in proposals and not in noise, "in fighting the big issues" because "the water deficit does not wait until 2027, the expansion of the Port of Valencia "I couldn't wait for 2027, the expansions of Manises and El Altet, they don't know about the electoral calendar and the burying of the train tracks in Alfafar is today, not in 2027."

Build a better future

The head of the Consell has also made reference to the purposes of “dialogue, respect and the exchange of ideas” that encouraged the creation of the Manuel Broseta Encuentro Club and has pointed out that “they are part of our best past and we must claim them as an essential element of the future ”.

Along these lines, he assured that "this stage of insistence on dissent and fueling division will pass and the legacy of good politics, that of good and sensible leadership, will remain intact to build a better future."

Thus, he stressed that “good politics, good leadership, is not what saves you time in a one-day communication strategy, but rather what reassures and thinks about long-term initiatives that change the profile of an entire organization.” generation".

In the same way, he has criticized the lack of leadership "in those who disturb or add noise to everyone's conversation" and has indicated his conviction that "the future of our territory is solved and is being realized in the Community of each day, in what its citizens are doing.”
