The train drivers demanded the "intervention of the EU" to "protect the lives" of AVE users: "There is a deterioration in safety conditions"

The new Minister of Transport, Carlos Cuerpo, has dismissed the leadership of Adif following Óscar Puente's resignation. Amid concerns over railway safety, the Alferro union has appealed to the EU regarding deficiencies in Spain's high-speed rail infrastructure. They filed a formal complaint to the European Parliament, highlighting issues in maintenance, risk control, and worker protection. The union's request emphasizes the urgent need for EU intervention to ensure compliance with railway safety regulations, especially after recent fatal accidents in Adamuz and Gelida. The European Petitions Committee has accepted the complaint for discussion.
