It's one of those essential infrastructure so we can not allow doubts or hesitations occur in the proposed connection between Cartagena and Murcia for speeding.

He also recalled that two weeks ago we celebrated the news that the Government had agreed to increase investment in the region AVE.

That decision ensured that the AVE would Cartagena Murcia while and, moreover, I would put the center option, which is what travel is shorter and better connection to our future airport.

However, "continued" today we see posted statements that cast doubt on those commitments.

Another aspect discussed in his speech, has been the protection of agricultural variety that is the area of Cartagena, one of the most productive agricultural areas of Europe, which exports 80% of regional production.
