The delegate of the Government in the Valencian Community, Pilar Bernabé, has visited Villena on the occasion of its festivities of Moors and Christians 2023, which are held until September 9. This celebration has been declared a Festival of National Tourist Interest since 2015.
Bernabé has highlighted the permanent collaboration between the City Council, the Local Police and the State Security Forces and Corps to be able to “guarantee a safe, maximum normality and to enjoy” in a “record” year for the return of the celebrations in their maximum splendor.
Regarding the effects caused by DANA, he noted that “all services are working to return to normality as soon as possible”, while condemning the denial discourses that “refuse the existence of climate change”.
