Maximum pressure for the dismissal of the president of Adif hours before Puente's appearance in Congress

Pressure mounts for the dismissal of Adif's president, Luis Pedro Marco de la Peña, following the tragic accident in Urda that resulted in 69 fatalities. Investigations are focusing on potential protocol errors at the Atocha control center. The situation is critical as the government prepares urgent safety measures for the Madrid-Sevilla line. Minister Óscar Puente is set to address Congress, facing scrutiny over past incidents and the effectiveness of safety systems. The ongoing investigation into previous accidents adds to the pressure on Marco de la Peña, who has a background in both public and private sectors. Calls for his resignation are echoed by opposition parties and some coalition allies, highlighting the urgency for accountability and improved safety protocols in the railway system.
