Abascal distances himself from Feijóo and calls it "irresponsible" to ask for an increase in AVE fares

Santiago Abascal, leader of Vox, criticized PP president Alberto Núñez Feijóo for suggesting that Spaniards should trust the railway system, calling it irresponsible. He compared riding the AVE to swimming in Palomares after a nuclear accident, emphasizing the need for caution. Abascal stated that he cannot encourage confidence in the railway system and proposed a complete audit to restore public trust. He downplayed the resignation of Transport Minister Óscar Puente, focusing instead on the need to remove Prime Minister Sánchez. Abascal also commented on Donald Trump's electoral defeat, viewing it as a common occurrence for U.S. presidents, while maintaining an active international agenda.
