The director of
EL MUNDO
, Francisco Rosell, broke down this Wednesday in the framework of
the XXI Century Club
some of the main challenges of Spanish journalism and politics in a world plunged "in liquid or even gaseous times" claiming "the values" that our country brought the
transition
from Francoism to democracy.
«I feel nostalgic for the future because we are in a very complicated moment, those of us who are in charge of the media know it.
A moment that demands that we give the best of ourselves and recover the values of the Transition.
This is how Rosell began a speech where he pointed to the year 2018 as a key point in "the rupture" of the consensus reached during that process with the coming to power of Pedro Sánchez and his pact with the independentistas.
«From what happened in 2018 we saw how an absolute polarization was imposed and a confrontation between the democratic forces.
That was the rupture of the policy of the last 40 years that I always claim, because it has been the best time of well-being and freedom that we have experienced in this country, "he said during an act that was presented by the deputy to the director of

The colloquium given by the director of EL MUNDO was also attended by the general directors and directors of
Unidad Editorial
,
Nicola Speroni
and
Stefania Bedogni

the directors of
Marca

,
Juan Ignacio Gallardo
and

;
members of the
EL MUNDO
staff such as the deputy director,
Joaquín Manso
, or the deputy director Francisco Pascual, and political personalities such as the
popular
Ana Pastor, Adolfo Suárez Illana or Fátima Báñez.
Before all of them, Rosell claimed "the spirit" of newspapers as "reliable sources of information."
"EL MUNDO is a newspaper that has always been against the current, even publishing information that its own reader did not see with pleasure, but our job is to tell what is happening and we must preserve that essential spirit to inform," she added.
I claim the Transition because it has been the best time of freedom and well-being
Because, as he assured, this task of "supervision" is today "more important than ever" at a time when "Parliament has ceased to be the center of political life and has become a clerk of power."
"Never have so many decree laws been approved and that entails a wear and tear on the institutions themselves," said the director of this newspaper, who focused on "the lack of transparency" of the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, and of the Executive itself.

"We have lived through liquid times and now is the time for solid politics," Rosell remarked in his review of the main political issues in our country: from the PP crisis and the change of leadership to the consequences that the turn of our country with respect to Western Sahara or the mobilizations of transport and the rural world against the policies of the central Executive.
"This difficult moment demands that we give our best," Rosell said.
Where the director of EL MUNDO first influenced was precisely in the crisis of the
popular
after the alleged case of espionage from the national leadership to the president of the
Community of Madrid
, Isabel Díaz Ayuso.
"It is very important to see the transformation process of the PP and how it can find a brake with the leadership of Alberto Núñez Feijóo", whom Rosell defined as a man "with management capacity" as opposed to the Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, to whom he described as "a man with ambition for power as he has always shown".

In addition, he also left a criticism of the previous
popular leadership,
whom he accused of not being "in agreement with the reply that had to be given to this Government" pointing out that "some pacts such as the Court of Auditors have been a discredit" or that "the humiliation” to Vox and Santiago Abascal during their motion of censure against Pedro Sánchez was “disproportionate”.
Facts that, according to him, have left politics and the battle of ideas "very degraded".
Rosell also warned of the problems facing the democratic system "if a government with 120 seats can do things" such as "control justice" or "govern by decree law."
“We are witnessing the destruction of the balance because Parliament has very limited oversight capacity and a seizure of Justice is taking place.
This is one of the most serious things that is happening in our country because the Prosecutor's Office continually aligns itself with the interests of the Government », he concluded.
