The president of the Popular Party of the Valencian Community, Carlos Mazón, has affirmed that «Ximo Puig is incapable of defending Valencian agriculture, neither before Sánchez nor before Brussels after the announcement of the withdrawal of the proposal of the European Commission (CE) of the cold treatment of oranges’.
The president of the PPCV, Carlos Mazón, has pointed out that “while the Valencian Community leads the abandonment of land in Europe, the use of phytosanitary products to combat cotonet is prohibited in Spain, costs are multiplied and they announce that they are going to increase the tax on diesel o Sánchez cuts our waters, now the withdrawal in the EC of the proposal to apply cold treatment to oranges imported from third countries, something essential to balance entry prices and above all to guarantee the same quality of the products”.
Mazón has pointed out that «we are facing a new failure and a blow against Valencian agriculture. And the Valencian government, instead of scoring medals and celebrating successes it has never achieved, should defend Valencian farmers. He is silent in the face of Sánchez’s socialism, which from Madrid cuts off our water and also in Brussels to those of us who did not ask for the treatments against the cotonet that Italy did request and now fails with the cold treatment of the orange ».
For the popular president, “the situation of agriculture is going to worsen in the coming months due to all the inconveniences that continue to be put forward, such as the prohibition of burning, water cuts or the increase in costs. They should go out and give explanations in the face of this new failure.
