The Persian market that the negotiations are becoming so that Pedro Sánchez’s presumed traveling companions end up giving him their support reaches all corners of the peninsula and the islands. Amnesties or who knows what they will end up being called, divisions of ministries, investments in various infrastructures, subsidies to friends and acquaintances, management transfers, tax agreements and multiple promises are being put on the table. Each one more unique.

An example of ‘what about mine’ occurs in the Valencian Community. This week, regarding the presentation of the supplement (and website) ‘Activos’ of Prensa Ibérica in Valencia, the brand new president of the Generalitat, Carlos Mazón (PP)he once again insisted, in public and private, on the need to expand the port of that city, the first in the Mediterranean in container transport. It is a demand from the Valencian business world that is on the table of the central government, which has the last word. State Ports, the name of the entity that controls Spanish ports, depends on the Ministry of Transport. It is based in Madrid. I imagine it will be due to the river transport that is generated in the Manzanares River.

It turns out that the four representatives of Compromís/Sumar who came out as deputies for the Valencian Community oppose the expansion of the port for environmental reasons. Totally consistent with an economic program that is committed to returning to the age of caves and that considers the creation of wealth and employment detrimental to human health. They have asked the leader of Sumar, Yolanda Díaz, to force Pedro Sánchez to refuse to expand the port if he wants his votes. The PSPV, Valencian socialism, supports the expansion.

What will happen? Nobody imagines that in the midst of the negotiating scuffle in which we find ourselves, it will be precisely the representatives of Compromís/Sumar who prevent Sánchez from being invested regarding the Port of Valencia. However, there is a second derivative where the ‘junteros’ of Puigdemont and ERC intervene. In Valencia they suspect that behind the scenes of the PSOE agreements with the Catalan separatists, they (or some of them) ask the PSOE not to expand that of Valencia because of the competition with the port of Barcelona. When asked, a relevant member of Junts denies the majority.

I imagine that Valencia will end up expanding its port and that The Valencian members of the PSOE-PSPV will end up being compensated in another way: There are always loaves and circuses. What I still cannot imagine, and it has been many years, is that one day we will be able to go from Barcelona at high speed to Valencia and Alicante, third and fifth provinces of Spain in number of inhabitants. The slowness, a product of laziness and lack of priority political interest, in the construction of the Mediterranean railway corridor, should make some faces pale.

Good and happy trip.
