Elisenda Alamany warns of Spanish disinvestment amid Rodalies chaos

Elisenda Alamany, leader of ERC at the Barcelona City Council, has warned that Spain is punishing Catalonia through disinvestment following the recent chaos in the Rodalies commuter rail service. The disruption occurred after train drivers staged a walkout to protest safety concerns within the network following heavy rainfall.

Alamany criticized Barcelona Mayor Jaume Collboni, accusing him of prioritizing partisan interests over the city's needs by failing to demand answers from the State regarding the rail crisis. Additionally, she addressed the political landscape, noting that while the Constitutional Court's support for amnesty for Carles Puigdemont and other leaders marks a turning point, the transport issues remain a symptom of ongoing political tension.
