Carlos Mazón claims the "necessary" expansion of the port of Valencia for the economic and social future of the Valencian Community and Spain

The president of the Generalitat, Carlos Mazón, has claimed the "necessary" expansion of the port of Valencia to guarantee the economic and social future of the Valencian Community and of Spain.

This is what Carlos Mazón said during the presentation of the economic supplement 'Activos' of the Premsa Ibérica Group, in which he participated together with its CEO, Aitor Moll.

 

The head of the Council has assured that the expansion of the north dike of the port is "necessary, inevitable, inexcusable, consolidated and demonstrated". In the same way, he pointed out that this is a key action for the economy of the Valencian Community, but also for Spain and Europe, since "even the European GDP is in danger if its fourth port collapses".

 

In this sense, he pointed out Prensa Ibérica as a "powerful ally" for the future of the Valencian and Spanish economy, and urged unity of action in the defense of the Community's strategic interests.

During the event, Mazón emphasized that both the new Council and the Prensa Ibérica Group share the conception of reality from the "capillarity", since they work "from bottom to top, from the scope local, regional, from the street, and finally from the provincial, regional and national level". "An example of this - he added - is the municipalist, provincialist and autonomous vocation" that characterizes the Valencian Government.

 

The president has assured that the Valencian Community is going through a "crucial" moment for the ceramic, agri-food, automotive sector and, especially, for the port of Valencia, and has insisted on his vocation to "keep firm our great references, which they have to pull the capillarity, of the little ones and the media".

 

As for the new economic supplement, the head of the Council described it as a "great adventure" and the Prensa Ibérica Group's commitment to the economic and business fabric of the Valencian Community, for which he thanked its CEO for the initiative.

 

The presentation ceremony was also attended by the Minister of Finance, Economy and Public Administration, Ruth Merino; the Minister of Education, Universities and Employment, José Antonio Rovira; the Minister of Environment, Water, Infrastructure and Territory, Salomé Pradas, and the Minister of Innovation, Industry, Trade and Tourism, Nuria Montes.
