MADRID, 7⁤ Feb.‌ (EUROPA PRESS)‌ –

In response​ to the ongoing​ tractor protests⁤ by agricultural organizations in Spain, President Pedro Sánchez has pledged to ‌strengthen the food ⁢supply chain law that prohibits selling at a⁢ loss. ⁢He has also rejected solutions that involve ​”climate denial” ⁣and “anti-European sentiment” in ⁤the sector.

During the first Congressional session​ of⁤ the year, the ⁢President answered questions from Vox and ERC regarding the agricultural protests. In response‌ to Santiago Abascal’s ⁣criticism,⁤ Sánchez assured that ⁢the​ government is “with the​ countryside,” pointing out the recent meetings that ⁣Minister⁢ of⁤ Agriculture⁢ Luis‍ Planas has ⁤had with various agricultural associations to analyze ‌the sector’s situation.

The President also highlighted⁣ the financial support provided ⁢to the agriculture sector, including 1.38 billion euros ‌in direct aid since 2022, 2.8 billion ‌euros for​ modernizing irrigation in Spain,‌ and 4.8 billion​ euros in subsidies linked to ‌the⁣ Common ⁤Agricultural Policy (CAP).

Santiago Abascal criticized the government’s policies in the ⁤primary sector, pointing out ‌that 75,000 agricultural holdings have disappeared in the last​ seven years‍ due ⁤to “unfair competition” from⁣ third⁣ countries, burdensome bureaucracy, radical environmentalist actions, and the ​”criminalization‌ of their way of life.”

In response, Abascal​ accused ‍the government⁢ of wanting a Spain of “sheep-like” individuals, whom they can easily‍ deceive.

In his⁣ rebuttal, Pedro Sánchez ‍condemned‌ Vox’s “lethal formula” for the primary sector, which he believed ​involved “climate‍ denial” and⁤ “anti-European ⁢sentiment.”

ERC CALLS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL POLICIES THAT ⁤BENEFIT THE SECTOR
