MADRID: Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez vowed Wednesday that justice would be done following two train accidents that claimed 47 lives last month and insisted the country’s rail system “is safe”.
The back-to-back disasters in January shocked the country and raised doubts about the safety of train travel in Spain, which boasts the world’s second-largest high-speed network after China.
“The entire state is doing – and will continue to do – everything possible to support the injured and the victims’ families, clarify the causes of the accident, and, if necessary, ensure justice is done,” Sanchez told parliament.
