Feijóo Pressures Mazón Amid DANA Crisis

Published: 2025-03-15

Alberto Núñez Feijóo, leader of Spain’s Popular Party (PP), is intensifying pressure on Carlos Mazón, the president of the Valencian Community, over his handling of the DANA tragedy.

The disaster, which claimed 225 lives, has sparked judicial and political investigations into alleged negligence by the regional government.

A recent court ruling criticized delayed emergency alerts and coordination, holding the administration accountable.

While Mazón himself is not under investigation, two former officials face charges.

Feijóo has signaled that Mazón’s political future depends on the outcome of these inquiries, stating, "The victims deserve accountability.

" Internal party tensions are rising, with calls for decisive action to address the crisis.

Feijóo has pledged to let investigations proceed before making further decisions.
