Valencia President Carlos Mazón Apologizes for Flood Mismanagement Amid Protests

Carlos Mazón, the President of Valencia, admitted to mistakes in managing the recent catastrophic floods that claimed over 220 lives. Despite his acknowledgment, he stated he would not resign, instead announcing a parliamentary committee to investigate the incident. Critics, including 130,000 demonstrators demanding his resignation, accuse him of delayed warnings and inadequate emergency response during the floods. Mazón defended his actions, blaming the socialist government and the national weather agency for the system’s failures. Protestors continue to voice their frustration outside the regional parliament, demanding accountability and improved disaster protocols.
