The President of the Generalitat,

Ximo Puig

, has once again launched a message to the Government of Spain in his institutional speech on

October 9

to demand a "second territorial transition" and new regional pacts that guarantee "justice" with territories such as the

Community Valencian

. "Now that there is a government more sensitive to diversity, we must ensure the right to difference without difference in rights," he demanded.

The head of the Consell has claimed that, from a "constructive" position, the three main demands that have moved his speech for months, when the path of overcoming the pandemic gave way to that of "rebirth"

, be

addressed:

financing

, ending the

"fiscal dumping"

and

decentralization

of the institutions. "History leaves us signs and the Valencian Community now has a double objective: that Spain offers us what corresponds to us - to paraphrase the Valencian anthem - and lead a more just Spain. We will not let them send us to the corner of the provincials. The voice Valenciana will be present, "said Puig, who insisted that the Community is now a" benchmark "territory in the country and a" respected voice ", after having left behind" the stigma of corruption "and having managed the" litmus test "of the pandemic" with rigor ", which has" made visible and strengthened "the capacity for self-government.

For Puig, this 9 d'Octubre is the "most hopeful in recent history" and marks the step "to a new life" after a pandemic in which, "despite everything", the Valencians have "resisted". For this reason, he now encourages people to demand justice, as the movements of the Germanías did 500 years ago, in which the popular classes united to demand more justice and a better distributed wealth. "It is time to end the old inequalities and the remedy for this is justice," which summarized the social, against job insecurity, gender, to end sexist and generational violence, to guarantee opportunities for young people and accompany old.

The Valencian president also winked in his speech to those who reproach him for not complying with the decentralization required in Spain in the Valencian Community.

For this reason, about 40 years of the first autonomous government, it has promised to "

stretch the Generalitat

politically, economically and emotionally beyond the Palau" and shorten distances with and "build bridges" with all the regions of the Community.

"Dividing and facing the Valencians would be a serious mistake because a united people is always stronger."

Opportunity to claim

Puig's claim was not enough for the opposition. From the PP, its president

Carlos Mazón

, assured that he liked that the head of the Consell "had claimed before two ministers of the Government of Spain such relevant issues as water, infrastructure or financing." "It has not been like that and we are not going to miss out on these opportunities," said Mazón.

From Ciudadanos, the disputed Valencian

María Muñoz

lamented the lack of "self-criticism and humility of the president", while the Botànic praised the beginning of a time to claim. "Starting with the need for a state that assumes that this is a highly decentralized country that must take steps towards a federal state and recognize that our autonomy is impoverished and needs fair financing," said the socialist

Manolo Mata

. For

Fran Ferri

(Compromís) pointed out that it is time to "work together to continue strengthening public services and generate quality employment," which means demanding fair financing.

"Without fair funding it is very difficult for Valencians to be able to leave in the same conditions as the rest of the autonomies," he said.

Meanwhile,

Pilar Lima

(Podemos)

c

onsideró very interesting open fronts by the president in a horizon which will address issues such as "the country we want to

go or how to

organize the state model, or get fair financing, linked also to a fair fiscal policy ".
