00:00Now, how the climate catastrophe is hitting different places in Spain.
00:05In this case, the floods that have reached Barcelona,
00:09while the search for missing people in Valencia continues.
00:12But what you are observing here are also blocked streets,
00:16a real disaster, a front of torrential rains that is hitting the entire Spanish Mediterranean coast,
00:21which has already claimed the lives of at least 214 people
00:26and that has moved to the southern half of Catalonia,
00:30causing numerous events and incidents.
00:34Facundo Bataglino, who is a journalist, who is there in Barcelona,
00:39is here to give us a panorama.
00:41Of course, Facundo, we thank you for this valuable contribution.
00:44How are you? Good morning.
00:46How are you? Good morning to you, to all of you.
00:48Well, we are also seeing images.
00:51Let's see, compared to Valencia, it seems to be a minor hit,
00:56but tell us what is happening now in Barcelona.
00:59Well, the truth is that the most difficult thing happened.
01:01It started at 8.30 in the morning with the first alarm in the Llobregat area,
01:05which is the first river that is adjacent to Barcelona.
01:09On the highway that connects Barcelona precisely with Valencia,
01:13to the side of the airport, it started raining at night,
01:17and after eight hours of rain,
01:19well, all the floodgates were denied,
01:23then the water reaches the sea and begins to bounce in the form of a pileton.
01:29Then suddenly we had the water on our knees,
01:32and in a couple of hours there was water on our waist.
01:36That is why the highway that connects Barcelona with Castelldefels,
01:40the place where Messi lived all his life,
01:42the one that is on the sea, was completely denied,
01:46cancelling more than 50 flights,
01:48and another 15 deviated for landing at other airports.
01:52The alert was from 10.30 in the morning to 1.30 in the afternoon.
01:56We are over 4 in the afternoon, 4 minus 10 precisely.
02:00Then it has calmed down a lot,
02:02the rain has stopped in what is Barcelona City,
02:05but it was very complicated.
02:07The Castelldefels area, Sitges and Villanueva and Lletruc,
02:10which are about 50 km from Barcelona to Valencia.
02:14According to the alerts, which were very criticized by the Valencians,
02:18which were not given in time,
02:20what happened here in Barcelona?
02:25Good question, the alert rang,
02:28there are people who received two, 8.30 in the morning and 10.30,
02:31others received only one at 10.30 in the morning,
02:34but it has been raining since last night,
02:36that is, they are 5 or 6 hours late,
02:38which is a bit what happened in Valencia.
02:41I don't know if they don't shoot them before,
02:44so as not to alarm the public,
02:46or if they are waiting for the first inconveniences to happen,
02:49so that the population takes the messages.
02:52For me, from my point of view, something very personal,
02:55it was a little late,
02:57because when I received it, it had been raining for more than an hour,
03:00and we have the water of Tobillo in Barcelona,
03:03so it was at least an hour late.
03:05As for the bureaucracy that the central government has,
03:09the communities, the UME,
03:12which is a special army unit,
03:14which is managed autonomously.
03:17Let's see what there is.
03:19Have those bureaucratic issues already been put on the table
03:22so that they are not repeated?
03:24Or, from what you are telling me,
03:26are those fights still going on,
03:28which obviously have fatal consequences for the citizenship?
03:31Well, the truth is that how they are still going on,
03:34we will not know, because they are not going to communicate it,
03:37because they are not communicating the official figures of the disaster.
03:41There is no official list of missing,
03:43there is no official list of damaged.
03:45So they are working,
03:48the truth is that in a very, very, very disorganized way.
03:51And well, President Pedro Sánchez has,
03:54by decree, by law,
03:56authority in situations of catastrophe,
03:58but he says no,
04:00that he has to manage the president of the Valencian community
04:02and ask for help.
04:04It is a bit the axis of the discussion
04:06because they are not acting professionally in such a catastrophe.
04:09Facundo, a situation that we saw in Valencia
04:14was the beginning of the looting,
04:16taking into account what happened in Valencia, in Barcelona,
04:18what was happening with that issue?
04:20No, no, for now, nothing.
04:22Yes, on Saturday there was a collapse in everything that was supermarkets,
04:26but there are like two positions.
04:30The people who can be touched,
04:32knowing that the money is rising
04:34from the north of Spain going to France,
04:37and that it could arrive between Monday and Tuesday to Barcelona,
04:40but also the purchase of food products
04:44and hygiene products to send and donate to Valencia.
04:47So on Saturday all the supermarkets were collapsed.
04:50These events, where they clearly show
04:52that the central government failed,
04:54both in Valencia, because the central government of Spain failed,
04:57in Valencia and Barcelona.
04:59Do you have an independentist and anti-Spanish feeling of the Catalans?
05:04No, no, not at all.
05:06On this occasion, no, but completely in solidarity.
05:09Firefighters, civil guard, people offering.
05:12We are four hours away from Valencia,
05:14from the closest communities,
05:16Tulum and the center of Valencia.
05:18Always with a feeling of solidarity,
05:20to go and help, to go and contribute.
05:22That has not been talked about.
05:24The problem is not in the Valencian community,
05:26but in the national government, which are oppositions.
05:28As for the state, and Lombard is working.
05:31Yes, on November 9, a march is being prepared,
05:35which is born from Valencia,
05:37to ask for the resignation of Pedro Sánchez as president,
05:40because of the ineptitude in this case.
05:42Yes, Facundo, speaking of ineptitude
05:44and people who are suffering and do not want to see.
05:47We ask you to stay, because we are going to share images
05:49with the public who are watching our news
05:51of what happened in Valencia,
05:53mainly with the kings of Spain,
05:55who insulted us, insulted us,
05:57they had to suspend their tour.
05:59Please, show it to me.
06:01There you have it.
06:03That is Paiporta, which is south of Valencia.
06:05The affected area is all the south, right?
06:07Let's see, it is very subjective to say,
06:09and with reason,
06:11because this type of issue should not occur,
06:13but the neighbors of the Spanish municipality
06:15insulted, threw mud at them,
06:17threw objects at Felipe VI
06:19and Queen Letizia
06:21for their passage in zone 0 of the time,
06:23so the officials had to flee the area.
06:25I say, what people think is,
06:27why don't they come before to see us?
06:29They arrived late, at least.
06:31Of course, arriving late is not arriving, gentlemen,
06:33arriving late is not arriving.
06:35Pedro Sánchez fled.
06:37What the kings say,
06:39which surely colleagues will confirm or refute,
06:41is that they stayed,
06:43despite having received mud on their faces
06:45and in some way they stood up
06:47without executive responsibility
06:49and they took advantage of the insults of the people,
06:51at least King Felipe and Letizia
06:53spoke to the people,
06:55Pedro Sánchez fled like a dog
06:57and it is the hate that has generated.
06:59Well, we are already used to Pedro Sánchez,
07:01that he goes to give topics, that he flees like a dog.
07:03What about the kings was a circumstance
07:05that has to do with the quarrel of the people,
07:07but I want to talk to our colleague Javier Negre,
07:09also from Spain. Hello Javier,
07:11nice to greet you. How are you? Good morning.
07:13This is Guillermo Andino.
07:15Good morning, comrades, how are you?
07:17Well, observing these images,
07:19it is not usual to see an aggression of these characteristics
07:21against the kings of Spain.
07:23Well, I have been on the ground
07:25these days, in Paiporta,
07:27in Masamasa, in the province of Valencia
07:29and people are fed up.
07:31People are fed up of paying taxes
07:33and seeing how the government has reacted
07:35late and badly.
07:37As their meteorological institute, AEMED,
07:39did not notify them in time and shape
07:41and that same day in the morning,
07:43AEMED said that
07:45that storm was going north,
07:47that is, it was going far from the area
07:49that finally affected, that the red alert
07:51ended at six o'clock in the afternoon
07:53when the storm erupted at six and a half in the afternoon
07:55and it was already carrying
07:57lives, cars and a lot of
07:59material damage, family memories
08:01and a catastrophic situation.
08:03At that time, when the Danacia
08:05was present, the government,
08:07through its deputies, took
08:09public television, that is, the first
08:11urgent measure that the government
08:13of Pedro Sánchez in the BOE
08:15took was to decree the Board of
08:17Administration of Radio Televisión Pública Española
08:19and place its allies to, these days,
08:21among other things, manipulate through
08:23public television and tell, for example,
08:25a lie, a fallacy, that is,
08:27there was no longer a possibility
08:29of housing more civil society,
08:31more volunteers to help.
08:33I have been to a lot of municipalities
08:35and there were streets where they have not seen
08:37a single army flag, not a single firefighter,
08:39not a single civil guard, not a single national police.
08:41Why? Because the government decided
08:43three days after the catastrophe.
08:45That is, for Morocco, for the earthquake,
08:47it took a day. For illegals,
08:49there is help in record time.
08:51And for the neighbors, who have been paying taxes
08:53all their lives, it turns out that
08:55nothing. So there is a discredit right now
08:57towards the institutions
08:59by those neighbors that the government
09:01is now saying that those neighbors have been
09:03summoned by me and that they are people from Madrid.
09:05Nothing further from reality.
09:07Anyone who has passed through the Porta country
09:09with the house destroyed, with the money
09:11lost, with their businesses destroyed
09:13and with dead and missing relatives
09:15will know that it is the indignation
09:17of many people
09:19that because of Sánchez
09:21the king also took it, which he did wrong
09:23at the time of presenting himself on a Sunday
09:25with the president of the government, who used the king
09:27so that they would not insult him. And in the end
09:29one endured like a brave man with the president
09:31of the military, Mazón, and with Queen Letizia
09:33and the other left running like a coward.
09:35Now this is not understood, right?
09:37Because, yes, what Sánchez said,
09:39the king fell into a trap
09:41of going to immolate himself there
09:43to that place in the midst of the fury
09:45of the neighbors.
09:47The royal house made a serious mistake
09:49that could have been very expensive
09:51because there was a lot of violence,
09:53I do not justify it, but it is not the first time
09:55that Sánchez makes the mistake
09:57that he invites them to go to acts together
09:59or he points to Sánchez so that
10:01in the military parade on October 12th
10:03Sánchez stands next to the king
10:05so that they do not whistle at him
10:07and if they whistle, people do not know
10:09if it is for Sánchez or for the king.
10:11What the monarchists are asking,
10:13many people in Spain, is that the king,
10:15complying with the law and the jurisdiction,
10:17gets rid of Sánchez and does not contribute
10:19to whitening him and Queen Letizia.
10:21But Javier, sorry, there is a previous fact
10:23to all political interpretation.
10:25How is it that the weather service fails?
10:27The question is how ...
10:29Or that it does not give the alert.
10:31That it does not give the alert.
10:33They lack technology, they lack radars,
10:35why does the weather service fail?
10:37Look, the head of weather management
10:39of the EMEZ, which is the public entity
10:41of the weather forecast,
10:43that same morning said that the red alert
10:45ended at six in the afternoon.
10:47The storm broke at half past six.
10:49That is, a real madness.
10:51The alerts, the alarms,
10:53reached some neighbors,
10:55or practically the entire population,
10:57at eight in the afternoon,
10:59when the storm had already taken place.
11:01Cars, dead, disappeared,
11:03a real madness.
11:05And you know why?
11:07Because the EMEZ is a public entity
11:09that controls the government.
11:11The government allocates more resources
11:13to Spanish television to manipulate
11:15the Spaniards than to the EMEZ.
11:17The radars failed, the forecasts failed.
11:19And right now there is a discredit
11:21and the antipolitical gene is germinating.
11:23That is, the civilian population,
11:25after paying so much tax,
11:27there has been a catastrophe
11:29and has not seen a reaction.
11:31Javier Milei, I advance you exclusively,
11:33has offered several white helmets
11:35in an emergency
11:37to help Spain.
11:39The Spanish government
11:41has now rejected it.
11:43There are a lot of people willing to help
11:45and the government, through its media,
11:47is telling them not to go,
11:49that they are going to hinder the area
11:51when there are flooded and muddy streets
11:53that have not seen a single shovel.
11:55And what many Spaniards say is
11:57that if the king wanted to be exemplary,
11:59if he had appeared
12:01as head of the armed forces,
12:03with the army, with shovels
12:05and with all those security advisers
12:07and escorts who accompanied him ...
12:09...
12:11There is a call coming in, Javier.
12:13Javier ...
12:15...
12:17There you are,
12:19a call is coming in,
12:21I don't know if you heard the last 10 seconds,
12:23but we understand everything.
12:25There is a cascade of useless,
12:27that a large part of the Spaniards
12:29in Valencia, unfortunately,
12:31are suffering from all this.
12:33We are finishing now.
12:35Yes, I ask you to be brief,
12:37because we are finishing the news.
12:39What many Spaniards demanded
12:41was that if the king wanted to be exemplary,
12:43he should go and present himself without Sánchez,
12:45without taking away his unpopularity,
12:47and with a shovel and the 50 soldiers
12:49who escorted him from the Royal Guard
12:51or from the Security Department,
12:53cut the street and put you to work
12:55as an ultra-rightist,
12:57as the government now tries to believe,
12:59through Spanish television and media,
13:01and blame me for that unpopularity,
13:03which, obviously, I am a reflection
13:05and I dedicate myself to doing my job independently
13:07and not depending on the government.
13:09Thank you very much.
13:11Don't blame the postman.
13:13This is probably a turning point
13:15for the king to get rid of Sánchez,
13:17who looks like a poisonous stain.
