Abascal, the only leader maintaining his election rallies, blames the Government for the Urda tragedy
The Vox leader refuses to suspend his campaign because he wants to turn politicians “into mourners at funerals” and use the mourning to “silence protests”
Vox is the only party that has not suspended its electoral campaign following the train accident in Urda, Toledo, which resulted in dozens of deaths. The accident involved a collision between an AVE train and an Iryo train. Santiago Abascal, speaking briefly to the press in Santander, Cantabria, criticized those who want to turn politicians into mourners at funerals. He also stated that some people are trying to use the shared pain and grief to silence complaints about the degradation of infrastructure.
