PSOE challenges PP leader Núñez over Castilla-La Mancha water rights

The PSOE in Castilla-La Mancha has challenged Paco Núñez, the regional president of the PP, to defend the region's water resources during Alberto Núñez Feijóo's visit to Toledo. Tita García Élez, president of the provincial PSOE executive in Toledo, accused Núñez of maintaining a “complicit silence” regarding water transfer demands from other regions.

García Élez claimed that Feijóo and the president of Murcia, Fernando López Miras, are compromising Castilla-La Mancha's water supply to benefit the Levante region and Madrid. She emphasized that the water from local basins, including the Tajo, Júcar, Segura, and Sorbe, is essential for the region's current and future development, specifically for its farmers and livestock producers.

The socialist leader urged Núñez to show the “courage” to confront his party's national leadership on these hydrological issues, arguing that failing to protect these resources poses a significant threat to the local economy.
