Chivite: "We are an example of a model that works without renouncing diversity."
The president of Navarre has made her assessment of 2025 in her traditional end-of-year message.
The President of the Government of Navarre, Maria Chivite, defended on Tuesday in her traditional end-of-year message the need to strengthen the economic strength of the foral community, the defence of the social model and democratic quality in the face of corruption, polarization and disinformation, among others.
Chivite has stressed by the end of the year that budgets and fiscal measures have been approved and has stressed that 70% of the population will have more money.
In economic terms, it places Navarre as the second "most competitive" community in the Spanish state, with a "strong" economy, an innovative and growing industry, and "record" employment figures.
However, the President acknowledges that Navarre is not exempt from the main social concerns of the moment and recalls, among other things, that there are problems with access to housing and the functioning of public health services.
In his message, he has warned of the need to make further progress in transparency and democratic quality, because corruption and the self-interested use of the public "undermine the system, politics and democracy". In this regard, he has predicted that the image of Navarre "will not be harmed by those who use it".
He has also proclaimed that the best way to defend this system is "to strengthen it and to be relentless," and that the prosperity of the community is a collective success: "We are an example of a model that works without renouncing our diversity."
He has therefore argued that it is possible to be competitive by betting on industry, talent, innovation, sustainability and equality without weakening a strong public service system. "If something works, we must work to improve it and not dismantle it. That will be our effort to end the legislature," he said.
