"Culture, heritage, history can not depend on the political color of the leaders of the moment"

"We will continue to seek funding for this work because we consider a priority in our political action the maintenance of cultural heritage of Yecla" The City of Yecla last week received the communication in which the Mixed Committee of 1.5 percent cultural denied the financing for the execution of the project of restoration of the chapel of the Virgen de las Angustias in the church of San Francisco.

"The sectarianism of the socialist leaders in the management and distribution of public resources is indisputable," said Marcos Ortuño who added that "coincidentally the Secretary of State for Infrastructures, the Murcian socialist Pedro Saura, was the chairman of a committee composed of representatives of the Ministry of Development and the Ministry of Culture that has only allocated resources in our region to municipalities that have socialist mayors, that is sectarianism, a sectarianism that does not surprise us and does not say anything good about the current Government of Spain. "

And is that the City of Yecla publicly presented last year the restoration project of this chapel, the architectural jewel of the Levantine baroque in our city, with which he attended this call for funding with public funds.

"We had high hopes for this funding, some may think that we have sinned innocent for believing that the Government of Spain, in the hands of the socialist party, was going to finance a work presented by a local government that is not from the left, but is that the culture, the heritage and the history can not depend on the colors that have the leaders of turn ", has underlined the mayor of Yecla.

Finally, Marcos Ortuño has stated that "we have requested a report from the ministry on the score with which our project has been valued, we will continue to try this way or through others, and I will personally look for the commitment of President López Miras to that is our Autonomous Community who takes a step forward and helps us in a restoration in which we are willing to collaborate where necessary with municipal funds.
