Fire stabilization hints at “the beginning of the end” in Los Gallardos

At the advanced command post in Turre, located just a few kilometers from the serious fire that has been threatening the municipality of Los Gallardos and nearby towns since last Thursday, the atmosphere yesterday was somewhat different.

Surrounded by members, emblems, and fan club members, Florentino Pérez’s last campaign event before the elections was marked by a full-frontal attack against his rival, Enrique Riquelme, whom he tried to discredit by all means in an extremely harsh speech. Without constantly mentioning him, but with direct references to his candidacy, Pérez built his intervention on the denials regarding his rival’s signings. “We campaign from the truth.

Illa: “Catalunya is living today the time of solutions”

Catalonia has left behind the time of division and confrontation. Catalonia is living today the time of solutions to transform the country.” In the traditional institutional message from the President of the Generalitat for Sant Jordi, Salvador Illa has this year painted an optimistic picture of Catalonia, based on an analysis of the global situation, where armed conflicts carry great weight, but also based on the internal diagnosis.
