- "We know where we have to allocate the Next Generation funds and we know our business and social fabric to improve our infrastructure and improve the situation of all Andalusians"
The general secretary of the Popular Party of Andalusia, Antonio Repullo, has highlighted in a interview in the 'Profile Interviews' section of the Es Radio network yesterday, May 15, that "the Popular Party and what President Feijóo has represented in the last Catalan elections, has been good sense and equality, which is what the Andalusians want. Repullo has also pointed out that «We have been one of the fundamental pieces to stop the independence movement» and that from the Popular Party of Andalusia «We are going to continue denouncing these grievances and also, of course, defending the interests of Andalusia.«.
Repullo has criticized the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, stating that "He has always thought about what can benefit him personally.«. According to Repullo, Sánchez "has not thought about Spanish society, Catalan society, Andalusian society, or even his party." Furthermore, he has accused the Sánchez Government of continuing «mistreating Andalusia by not providing it with the necessary investments in these infrastructures«.
Regarding the electrical network, Repullo has indicated that «Without electricity there is no industry, without industry no new jobs are created.» and stressed that «Andalusia is 42% below the average number of kilometers of electrical network per million inhabitants that Spain as a whole has». He has also mentioned that "of 489 million, only 7,2 million corresponds to Andalusia", which, according to him, "reduces opportunities for Andalusia."
