A devastating cold drop storm recently struck Valencia, causing significant human and material damage.
The crisis has sparked a debate over the responsibilities of the central and regional governments.
President Pedro Sánchez emphasized the importance of decentralized governance, arguing that taking over the crisis management from the Valencian government would reduce efficiency.
Despite criticism, the central government has launched a substantial aid package to support recovery efforts.
Meanwhile, the opposition, led by the Popular Party, continues to blame the central government for inadequate response, while also facing scrutiny over the regional administration's actions.
The situation underscores the challenges of managing natural disasters in a decentralized political system.
