With no one defending the actions of the president of the Generalitat Valenciana, Carlos Mazón, in the management of the DANA, his strategy is to hold on to his post. Just after attributing the serious repercussions of the flood, in which at least 220 people died, to alleged “failures of the entire system”, Mazón hides behind the appointment of a retired military officer, Lieutenant General Francisco José Gan Pampols, as vice-president of the Generalitat Valenciana and gives him the powers of reconstruction and recovery of the affected areas. Is this a decision that symbolises the natural integration of the military in our democratic society? Or is it a symptom of how authority, order and anti-politics profiles are making their way in a disappointed society? With Adolf Beltrán, director of elDiario.es in the Valencian Community, we try to interpret what messages are being sent with the appointment of this military officer as a high-ranking political official in the midst of social trauma. With Zaida Cantera, former military officer and former PSOE deputy, we talk about the value of the military at the forefront of management in civil administrations, and with José Enrique de Ayala, retired brigadier general and member of the Fundación Alternativas, we point out what the Valencian president intends with this appointment. *** Send us a voice note via WhatsApp telling us a story you know or a sound that is close to you and that catches your attention.
