Óscar Puente, the tweeting minister who joked about "la Renfe" delays a week ago, besieged by two tragedies in nine months

Óscar Puente, Spain's Transport Minister, addressed the recent train collision in Toledo that resulted in 68 fatalities, attributing it to human error. He dismissed calls for his resignation, focusing instead on resolving the incident. This tragedy follows another deadly crash in January, raising concerns about railway safety. Puente had been active in the political campaign leading up to the elections, contrasting his public persona with his management role. Despite the crisis, he maintained a busy schedule of political engagements, although he canceled a meeting with party members in Cádiz due to the accident. His handling of the situation will likely impact his political future.
