The “Rider Law” aspired to improve the delivery of Spain. In the sector there are those who believe it has served the opposite

by

Bit (Or very little) today has to do with today’s delivery sector, before the government approved the Legislative change that forced that Thousands of dealers stop being autonomous to swell the template of the platforms with which they operate. The known as ‘Rider Law’ He has marked the last years of the sector and has left a deep mark on both the service and in the hospitality. So deep, in fact, that in the middle of 2025 there are still voices that They question their effectiveness And they warn that it is harming Riders, websites, restaurants and customers. A “lose-lose ‘by quadruple”, They regret. What happened? That despite the over four years that have elapsed since its approval in Spain, The impact that he has had the measure at the community level and that his guidelines have been pending little by little Among companies, the ‘Rider Law’ still does not get rid of the controversy. A quick search arrives on Google to find news more or less recent than They question their effectsbut perhaps who has summarized its impact on the sector is Alejandro Hermo, CEO of the Hamburgueserías chain Goiko. Recently the manager, a voice with A certain weight In the guild, He exhibited on LinkedIn The blow that (in his opinion) is advising him the legislative change: “Delivery has been very complicated for a few months, impacting customers and restaurants.” What exactly has he said? More or less, that any past time was better. “We have gone from having a delivery system that worked as a clock, giving good service to customers and restaurants, to have a rigid, expensive and inefficient system that makes it almost impossible to cover with enough riders the peak hours, causing the restaurants to appear without service available or/and that the orders are late (if they arrive),” he laments in Your post The Goiko CEO. Is there more? Yes. Hermo assume that adapting to “such a drastic model” will require a certain “time”, but is also convinced that the service will never recover its “previous level.” “What is happening after the forced change of a model of autonomous Riders to 100% hired Riders is a ‘Lose-Lose’ by quadruple,” insists the manager before exposing why, in his opinion, the law harms both the distributors and the platforms, the restaurants and the clients themselves. Hermo warns that, when reconverting in wage earners, the first (the Riders) have seen how they diminished their income and the freedom to self -manage. Moreover, the manager is convinced that the change has “hindered” that they can access the most occasional the most occasional riders, those who only accepted orders to complete their economy, such as students. As for platforms such as Glovo or Justeat, Hermo warns that the increase in operational costs has subtracted flexibility to cover the ‘peak hours’. How does restaurants affect? In 2023, during An interview With the EFE agency, the businessman already warned that although the ‘Rider Law’ focuses mainly on platforms and hoteliers are only “a secondary actor”, in the long run they would end up being affected. Now confirm it. “Restaurants lose business and profitability,” summarizes its publication of LinkedIn, in which it slides that the legislative change has resulted for them in a less flexible and more expensive delivery service. “Thinking about our sector, we cannot afford at this time another torpedo in the flotation line of the restoration,” he remarks. The consequences for customers are from their obvious point of view: a less efficient delivery. “The service worsens because there are fewer restaurants available, it takes longer and reaches a worse condition. And it will eventually be more expensive per order to pay the model change party.” What does it propose? That platforms, distributors and administration “feel and be heard” to find a consensual exit. “The solution is not white or black, there must be intermediate points that approach the demands of both parties and serve as inspiration for other countries.” For Hermo the Delivery is only One more example of the new business model that do not have to be guided by the inherited guidelines of the twentieth century. “With their pros and cons, but they are less flexible than today is demanded.” Is it the only one to complain? No. And that’s why his reflection is even more interesting. Beyond the debate that accompanied the approval and entry into force of the ‘Rider Law’, in 2021, the discussion around the pros and cons of the measure have been maintained over the last four years. In August The newspaper asked To the spokeswoman for the RidersxDerechos Trade Union Platform, Núria Soto, if the collective is better today at work level than a five years. His answer was clear: “Yes, although it depends on who you ask.” “Riders have more rights, but also less income. And those without work permission who distributed renting accounts have been excluded from regularizations and have lost their source of income,” Soto warned. There are deeders that are even more blunt And they regret that the ‘Rider Law’ has sunk them even more in the “precariousness” that promised to free them. They have even been published academic studies that confirm how legislative change has had some unwanted effects, such as worsening of salaries or destruction of employment. Why that complaint now? The law is 2021, but it makes sense that the sector continues to pronounce today. After all, a good part of the Riders They were still not hired until not so long. This year however Glovo gave A key step by deciding that all their distributors become salaried. The decision was made after a few complex years, marked by large fines and The scrutiny of the authorities, and not without suspicion. “We will hire 20,000 workers, but they will gain less than as self -employed,” He warned in February Your CEO. According to The newspaperin August almost 70% of the packages that were distributed in Spain they did it through a delivery man with … Read more

“If you want to win, you have to make sacrifices”

by

Eric Schmidt, who led Google for a decade in the early 2000s, has returned to The load against teleworking. In an interview in The podcast All-inthe veteran executive stressed the requirement to compete against China if workers in the US maintain flexible work policies and conciliation. His argument is based on the tendency of many Chinese companies, which are governed under The 996 system (Days from 9 in the morning to 9 at night, six days a week). This practice was declared illegal in the Asian country in 2021, although Schmidt says that “everyone continues to do so.” Against teleworking. Schmidt holds That working from home is especially harmful to young professionals, however qualified they are. According to his experience in Sun Microsystems, where he became director of Technology, much of his learning simply came from being present in the office and listening to discussions among more experienced classmates. “How is that recreated in this new model?” He wondered in reference to remote work. For Schmidt, winning in the technological sector requires “making sacrifices”, and teleworking does not fit that equation. “If you are going to be in technology and want to win, you will have to make concessions,” he said. It is not the first time that charges against Google. The manager had previously criticized his former company for his labor flexibility policies. At a conference at Stanford last year He affirmed that “Google decided that conciliation, get out of work soon and work from home was more important than winning”, adding that “the reason why the Startups They work is because people work as convicted. ” Although he subsequently retracted those statements, since a spokesman indicated that “he had expressed himself badly and regrets his mistake,” it is clear that his recent comments show that he maintains his background position. The University even eliminated the video from YouTube after it went viral. The reality of 996 crosses the Pacific. Although China officially prohibited 996 days, Schmidt insists that all Chinese technology companies continue to apply them. And this obsession with work It is also arriving at Silicon Valley. According to several US media, more and more Startupsespecially those focused on artificial intelligence, they expect their employees work 72 hours per week. Google too He turned back. After implementing work policies from home during the pandemic, Google has reversed the trend, as well as many other technological companies, and now requires some remote employees Go to the office three days a week. Even Sergey Brin, co -founder of the company, Indian To the teams that work in Gemini that are in the office “at least” every working day, suggesting that 60 hours per week represent “the optimal point of productivity”, according to reported The New York Times. China’s work culture. Beyond the debate about work hours, the former director express His concern for the different priorities between both powers in artificial intelligence. While many US companies are obsessed with achieving general artificial intelligence (AGI), China focuses on developing AI for everyday usesuch as practical applications and robots. Schmidt attributes this difference to the hardware limitations of the Asian country and its capital markets, but considers that this more pragmatic strategy should be ‘reason for concern for the United States’.

Renfe withdrew the avlo-barcelona avlo forced. And now prices are in the clouds

by

Prices have risen 40% in the Madrid-Barcelona corridor. It is the conclusion they arrive in Trainline, a company that looks for the best prices and schedules when we want to travel by train. The departure of the Avlo de Renfe trains is pressing the upward market and the average of the ticket is already above 70 euros. The exit. The news arrived at the end of August and is underway since September 8: Renfe only offers bird service Between Madrid and Barcelona. The company took out its Avril trains, which offers the service Low Cost of his classic high speed trips. The movement came after Renfe suffered various pressures related to Failures in those Talgo S106 that made the Avlo route in said corridor. This summer, one of those trains cracked and despite the company’s attempts by hide the problem and manage the crisis with a low profile, Finally ended up withdrawing them. Prices shoot. Since then, Trainline, which adds the prices of the operators so that the user finds the prices and schedules that suck him, ensures that the average price is now 40% more expensive than a year ago. They assure that now, The average ticket price To move between Madrid and Barcelona exceeds 80 euros. The data is motivated by the AVLO output and the use of variable prices that are adjusted based on the demand. With an operator Low Cost Less, these tickets are now absorbed by AVE and the starting price already increases. That explains, according to The avant -garde That the cheapest ticket is already at 50 euros and reach up to 150 euros on a Sunday afternoon. Expensive, but not so much. The Madrid-Barcelona corridor has long been experiencing a price increase. Although in the first Compasses ouigo and Iro, they lowered the train prices, it was expected that little by little they will rise over the months and years. More in a corridor that in the second four -month period of the year moved to 3,944,879 passengers and has a very high occupation rate, According to CNMC data. This agency publishes a report every three months with the performance of Spanish high -speed companies. The most recent refers to Q2 and does not collect, therefore, the current increases, but it does notice that the average price of the tickets had already been 63.14 euros, with a 15.3% increase over the same period last year. That increase was marked, without any doubt, by a generalized price increase between the low cost. Ouigo rose 18.7% and Iroo 22.5%. For his part, Avlo was the one that less took care of the three, with a rise of 14.5%. The same but more expensive. In the absence of knowing a more complete photograph (which will not come to the next year when the CNMC publishes the September data this year and the last quarter), what is clear is that Avlo’s departure has meant very bad news for the passenger. On average, Avlo tickets were the cheapest seconds on the market in the second quarter, with a price of 51.95 euros. The jump to the bird is important since the average of these tickets reaches 73.91 euros. But, in addition, the increase in prices will be substantial because Avlo moved 14.7% of all travelers who moved between Madrid and Barcelona. That means that almost 580,000 runner travelers have to get a place in some more saturated ouigo and Iro or, on the contrary, assume the cost of traveling in AVE. What can we expect? However, Pedro García, responsible for Trainline in Europe, says that “as a whole, it is still cheaper than before liberalization, although leaving customers without a low -cost option directly affects the price of tickets”, in words collected by The avant -garde. However, we must bear in mind that if the tickets have been more expensive in the corridor since Renfe faced competition, it is because the demand rewards it. The occupation rate in Madrid-Barcelona is so high that it justifies a slow but constant rise. And a good example of the good health that Renfe enjoys in the corridor is that Ouigo derived trains that he had in operation in Madrid-Barcelona to the Andalusian corridor because he believes that he can be more competitive there. This last corridor seems more sensitive to the price where the differences between AVE and the Low Cost They are narrower and the cost for travelers are settled.

I’m generating absurd memes where I am the protagonist and I can’t stop

by

Openai is not a gray company. When he presented Sora’s first version, it seemed that the video associated with Chatgpt was going to change everything, but the reduced model that ended up arriving at users 10 months later was a complete fiasco. Now have launched Sora 2 without prior notice And, well, I can’t stop. It is totally addictive. It has a metic potential that far exceeds The launch of Nano-Banana de Googleand that reminds the Studio Ghibli phenomenon of Chatgpt, which makes me think that, this time, OpenAi had everything coldly calculated. You have to have effort to get to Sora 2 In the absence of API to get access to the model in third -party tools (Freepik claims to be in it), The only way to create videos with Sora 2 is through Sora, a new OpenAi social network that works like Tiktokbut with videos generated by artificial intelligence itself. Sora is only available, for the moment, In the United States and Canadaso the first thing I had to do to access is to install a VPN. After choosing a username (or importing the one I already had in the old Sora), uploading a profile picture and putting on a bio, I could finally start generating videos with nine seconds sound, in panoramic or vertical format. Not so fast. Sora’s web version is missing several functions, including the most popular of all: create a “cameo” with your face and your voice to become the protagonist of your own videos or to appear in the videos of others. To configure that option you have to download the Sora app, which is now exclusive for iPhone, and is only available in the United States and Canada app store. So I had to install a VPN in iOS, create an Apple account in the United States, associate the new account to the app store and download Sora. Once inside, I found a very familiar interface. A Feed of recommended content, another to see the publications in chronological order and another to see only what you follow. In addition to creating your own content, answering comments, etc. As a novelty, he has an option to tell the AI ​​in what “Mood” you are: what kind of content you want to see. Openai has given in the nail with the “cameos” Anyone who has generated images and videos with AI in recent years knows that models tend to change your face. Nor are they very good to maintain the same face in different scenes. Until recently, the solution was the Loras: Train a model with your photos (technically, refine an already trained model) to generate videos with your face. But Loras are a complex and expensive solution, which has resulted in new techniques to improve the consistency of image models. Flux Kontext of the German company Black Forest Labs or Gemini 2.5 Flash Image Nano-Banana of Google are paradigmatic examples that have pushed the entire sector to improve their consistency. And now Sora cameos arrive. When you open Sora’s application for the first time, you can directly configure your cameo with the phone camera, reading some numbers that appear on the screen and turning the head in the addresses indicated by the app. The recording is used to generate videos with your face and your voice in the context you can think of. There is A huge guide OpenAi to improve your cameos, but the most important point is to be in a well -lit room. With the recording enough for the results to be convincing, but you can add personalized instructions in a text box: I am smiling, I am serious, I am fat, I am skinny, etc. The most important thing is to select who will be able to use your cameo to make videos: only you, only the people to whom you have approved access, all your friends or all users. Sam Altman, the OpenAi CEO, has a public cameo that carries Sora’s initial success. Almost all the videos that have been viralized have Altman as the protagonist. Sora’s first great meme are uncomfortable videos of Sam desperate because they give her more servers: Sam Altman stealing graphics cards in a target, Sam Altman asking for donations, Sam Altman screaming at the Nvidia headquarters that need more GPUS. He Presentation video Sora 2 included OpenAi engineers flying over dragons or riding giant ducks. The same generation of Sora can have several cameos, so one of the star functions could end up being mixed with celebrities. The problem is to find celebrities willing to give your image that way. In one of my videos, Ijustine tells me How fine the iPhone Air and Sam Altman replies that “it is a respectable size, I would say.” The videos take a few minutes to generate. You can do several at the same time (up to 100 a day) and then publish or leave them in drafts. More similar to I came than Tiktok or Instagram Sora is first and foremost an poisoned dart against goal. The queen of social networks has not only been fishing Openai engineers with her astronomical salaries, but just a week ago she had just launched her own social network of self -generated content: “Vibes.” With a more creative or artistic approach that Sora, Vibes has been described by the less flattering comments as a “Ai Slop” landfill, garbage content generated with AI. Sora is still, in large part, garbage generated with AI. But the feeling I have while I do Scroll It is to have returned to the times of Vine, the precursor of Tiktok that was bought by Twitter and then close. An amalgam of scathing sketches and anonymous moments with the innocence of a time in which the short video did not monetize nor competed for your attention against millions and millions and millions of other vertical videos. For now, people are in Sora to pass it well. And to put Sam Altman in trouble. … Read more

Some fishermen have found a drone of Ukraine loaded with explosives. The problem is where: in Türkiye

by

At the beginning of September he turned on a flame that has not yet turned off. In the War of Ukraine we had seen drones throwing drones To tear down other drones, drone swarms stopping and prisoners To recruits, even drones acting practically on your own Thanks to the AI. But never that a drone lost the course and ended up arriving as far as Estonia. That is why what has happened now is unusual: they have arrived in Türkiye. An unexpected finding. The discovery of a Ukrainian naval drone Magura Loaded with explosives in front of the Turkish town of çarşıbaşı, 1,500 km from kyiv territory, it has highlighted both the scope of these weapons and the collateral risks of its employment. The artifact was towed by local fishermen to the port, which had to close while displacing artifiers to neutralize it. It was a Magura V5 modeleasily identifiable for its electrooptic turret and satellite antennas, but without the additions of some recent prototypes, such as FPV drone pitchers, machine guns or missile rails. The scene illustrates How these mills, initially conceived as naval kamikazes, can become dangerous drifting objects if they lose contact or fail their guidance systems. The evolution of magura. From his Appearance in 2022the Magura have gone from being simple suicidal boats to versatile platforms. Gur, Ukrainian military intelligence, has experienced aerial drone releasesautomatic armament and even With air-air missiles. In December 2024, a Magura V5 managed to demolish A MI-8 helicopter Russian with an adapted R-73, a world milestone in the use of naval drones. In May 2025, another V7 variant, equipped with two Sidewinder AIM-9he killed Two SU-30 Flanker fightersdemonstrating that a non -manned surface vehicle could deny airspace. These advances confirm that the border between naval, aerial and land war is blurred in the same modular system. Strategic impact We have counted before. The Ukrainian campaign with naval drones transformed maritime balance. After The attack on Sebastopol In October 2022, the USV forced Russia to retreat large units of its fleet, limit operations in the northwest of the Black Sea and assume a constant risk even in eastern ports. Despite not having a conventional navy, Ukraine has managed to contain one of the world’s greatest armed through drone swarms. This has had a direct strategic effect: Crimea, core of the Russian naval presence, has remained More isolated and vulnerableand Moscow has been forced to reinforce coastal defenses, disperse ships and display additional surveillance means. Captures, losses and a race. Not all magura reach their goals. Some have been recovered intact, such as the one found by Russia in Crimea In November 2023which opens the door to the analysis and the possible reverse engineering. The images of these captured specimens show the rapid evolution of the design, with improvements in optics, antennas and autonomy. The risk It is double: On the one hand, Russia can learn to interfere with your communications or copy technologies; On the other, propaganda uses these findings to show supposed Ukrainian weaknesses. The drone found in Türkiye, regardless of its characteristics, becomes a symbol of the limits of this new form of war: the sea can return these mills to unexpected places, with unpredictable consequences. The Naval War of the future. He Turkish episode confirms that naval drones have arrived To stay. Their low cost compared to a war ship, their ability to operate without crew and their flexibility to carry different weapons systems make them a decisive actor. The Ukrainian case demonstrates that a conventional nation can harass and condition a much higher adversary. At the same time, ask questions about International Maritime Securityneutrality of third countries and technological proliferation. If a fisherman can find an explosive drone in a Turkish port, the line between Combat and Civil Space front becomes increasingly dim, anticipating a future in which the seas will be the scene of wars Invisible Libradas by clear flag machines.

Pre-cragpt voice attendees are dead. And Apple is the only one that has not yet gone to burial

by

This week has happened unusual in the war of voice attendees: Amazon and Google have presented their new domestic devices the same day. Echo Dot Max, Echo Studio, Echo Show 8 and Echo Show 11 on the one hand. Google Nest Cam, Nest Doorbell, Google Speaker and the renewed Google Home app on the other. Why is it important. Calendar coincidence, yes, but above all shared emergency symptom. Because it is not just speakers with better serious or screens with more pixels. These are two technological giants, simultaneously burying their classic assistants – Alexa and Google Assistant – to replace them with conversational versions driven by large language models. The context. The rules changed in November 2022. Since Chatgpt demonstrated what a real conversation means with iausers have learned that there is something better than asking a speaker to put music or activate a timer. These basic functions have become invisible. The microwave of technology: it is there, it works, nobody thinks of it. What has happened. Alexa+ and Gemini for Home promise natural conversations, complex automation created in voice, cameras that understand context and not only detect movement. “Amazon has left a package at the entrance” instead of “activity has been detected.” Context, no events. Intention, not rigid commands. But that future is priced: ten dollars a month in the basic plan, twenty in the complete. The hardware is only the entrance door to a recurring income model. Between the lines. The inference costs of language models are huge and someone has to pay them. The AI ​​becomes the new market segmentator: with it your product is Premium, without it it is a relic of the past. These presentations arrive after years of stagnation. Alexa and Google Assistant had been doing the same thing: Music, alarms, time questions. The narrative has exhausted. Users have stopped imagining what else could these cylinders do and we have silently assumed that they are for what they are, in the same way we do not ask the oven that tells us jokes, because it is for something else. The big question. Who will pay twenty dollars a month to use a speaker that mainly serves to ask time and reproduce Playlists? The problem is no longer technical. It is perception. Amazon and Google need us to see them otherwise, to set a new habit. Meanwhile, Apple continues with the classic Siri. Limited, frustrating, stuck. Has integrated chatgpt as a crutch for certain consultations, but His real advance has stuck and delayed. And above all, it is created for iPhone, iPad and Mac … but not for Homepod. At least for now. In summary. Expectations have already changed. Anyone who has used Chatgpt knows what a real conversation with AI means. Back to Siri after that feels like going back fifteen years. Pre-cragpt voice attendees are dead. Amazon and Google have certified their death this week. They have gone to the burial and have begun to build another tool. The question is no longer whether Apple will present your answer. It is yes, when you finally do it, someone will continue to wait for it. Or if we will be to other things.

45,000 tons of green hydrogen per year

by

For decades, the North Sea was synonymous with oil and gas, holding a good part of the European economy and energy supply. Today, in full transition to renewables, that same sea is emerging as the scenario of a change of era: there has not been discovered a hidden reservoir, but the production of 45,000 tons per year of green hydrogen. Is this possible? Some media They have replicated The same narrative of finding a natural hydrogen site in the North Sea, but the reality is very different. An official statement from Totalenergies and Air Liquide They announced two projects of electrolysis in the Netherlands and Belgium that, added, could produce that amount of green hydrogen every year from renewable electricity generated in the Oranjewind marine wind park. In short, there is no hydrogen deposit “under the sea”. What there is is production potential thanks to offshore wind turbines that provide energy to electrolyte capable of dividing water into oxygen and hydrogen. Electrolysis It consists of applying electricity (If it comes from renewable sources, such as wind, we talk about “green” hydrogen) to previously treated water to separate its oxygen and hydrogen molecules. Subsequently, hydrogen is compressed or transported by pipes towards its industrial or energy use. There are many plans in sight. The project mentioned above contemplates an electrolyzer of 250 MW in Zeeland with the capacity to produce up to 30,000 tons per year, it is scheduled for 2029. Also, there is one of “Tolling” with the Elygator electrolyzer in Maasvlakte, with 15,000 tons per year for the Refinery of Antwerp, operational within two years. This scheme means that Totalenergies does not build or opera directly that electrolyzer: yields its renewable electricity to air liquid, which transforms it into hydrogen, and totalenergies pay for that production capacity In addition, others develop in Europe projects like Hope (Hydrogen offshore production for Europe), coordinated by French Lhyfe. This will install a 10 MW electrolyzer off the coast of Belgium and hopes to produce its first four tons per day in 2026, demonstrating the viability of generating hydrogen directly on the high seas. But is there anything in motion? Pilots have been tested for three years Sealhyfea small offshore plant also from Lhyfe. However, making the leap to large -scale production faces several obstacles: High costs: a single electrolyzer such as Zeeland is about 600 million euros of investment. Technical challenges: corrosion, storms and maintenance in marine conditions. Environmental Impact: Offshore wind farms They can affect to marine biodiversity, fishing or provoking bird collisions with turbines. Fragmented regulation: Each northern sea country applies different norms, which delays common projects. A strategic sea. The European Union has marked as a goal to boost renewable hydrogen to decarbonize sectors that are difficult to electrify – such as steel, cement or heavy transport – and reduce dependence on fossil gas. By 2030 wants to have dozens of electrolyte gigawatts installed. In parallel, its offshore renewable energy strategy plans to reach up to 300 GW of marine wind capacity in 2050, Much in the North Sea. Now, the North Sea does not belong to the EU as a whole: it is distributed in exclusive economic zones (ZEE) from different countries, including Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, United Kingdom and Norway. That means that each project must first adjust to the country’s regulations in whose Zee is. To overcome this fragmentation and scale the energy transition, Brussels promotes cross -border cooperation initiatives such as the North Seas Energy Cooperationwhich seeks to harmonize rules and interconnect projects between neighboring countries. Goodbye gas and oil. The North Sea was for decades symbol of the European Black Gold and gas dependence. Today it could become a laboratory of the energy transition. The “Treasury” is not hidden in chests under the sea: it is a challenge that requires investment, political cooperation and technological advances. Only if these barriers are exceeded, the figures will cease to be striking holders to become a true energy revolution.

Ryanair has put Spanish province airports with their cuts with their cuts. Despite this, it will grow in 100,000 squares

by

Ryanair will increase its seat offer in Spain by 0.5% during the 2025-2026 winter season, which is equivalent to about 100,000 additional places. So far, the airline continued with its strategy of Remove places at regional airports Spanish in response to the increase in AENA’s airport rates. This time, the movement has been the opposite, although it was expected, because the firm prefers to concentrate the fleet in the most profitable destinations. Cuts. Ryanair will reduce its capacity in northern cities and island regions, although The global balance is positive. In addition, there has been airplane repositioning: the two devices retired from Santiago de Compostela will move to Malaga and Alicante, remaining in Spanish territory. The company seeks that its airplanes fly more hours and generate greater return per passenger, something simpler in large tourist cities. This movement adds to The 800,000 squares already eliminated Before summer in airports such as Santiago, Vigo, Tenerife Norte, Santander, Zaragoza, Asturias and Vitoria, who in some cases have meant the dismissal of a hundred employees. Who wins and who loses. The Mediterranean will be the great beneficiary. Malaga, Alicante and Valencia will absorb the bulk of growth, with increases that could achieve Between 10% and 14% At Alicante airport, exceeding 10 million seats. The Costa Blanca Tourism Board of Tourism figure the increase in more than 4.3 million places from Alicante-Elche. This Thursday will start The presentation act of the winter operation with an event in Malaga that will be attended by Mayor Francisco de la Torre, where it is expected to know the increase in routes and frequencies from the Costa del Sol. Seville will maintain its stable offer. The great affected. On the opposite side, Santiago will suffer a collapse Of 80%, Vigo of 73%, Asturias of 16%, Santander of 38%and Zaragoza of 45%. The Canary Islands will lose more than 400,000 places, with the total closure of operations in Tenerife North and descents in Gran Canaria, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. The Balearic Islands will also notice the withdrawal, with a 6% drop in the middle of the low season. Even Madrid and Barcelona, ​​the two great airports of the country, They will see their capacity fall by 3% and 5% respectively. The airline He has threatened In addition to reducing another million seats next summer if Aena does not reduce airport rates. The pulse with Aena continues. Eddie Wilson, CEO of Ryanair, justifies The redistribution of the fleet through airport rates ensuring that “our personnel costs, route rates, maintenance, sales or fuel are the same in any country. The only variable costs are handling and airport rates, and if they rise in Spain and go down another place, we will go there.” Michael O’Leary, executive president of the airline, will travel to Madrid in October to address with the government the lack of incentives to regional airports and the fine of 107 million euros imposed by consumption for the collection of hand suitcases, a sanction that the airline has resorted to considering it contrary to European regulations. The answer from Aena. Maurici Lucena, president of Aena, responded To Aena’s pressures ensuring that “he uses them because he freely wants to do it and because it is convenient. Contrary to what Ryanair’s public statements hint, Aena will never accept transforming the relationship of symbiosis into a vassalage relationship, as the airline intends, because the Spanish airport system would seriously harm.” Despite the cuts, there is growth. Despite the threats and the announced cuts, Ryanair has requested more holes between hours than last season, a “quantitative discrepancy” highlighted by Lucena himself. The airline It is still the first in Spain with 46.7 million passengers until August, far ahead of Vueling (33.2 million) and the Iberia group (29.6 million).

The CAF equilibrium set and its light harmony in Jerusalem

by

The “great Spanish rail giant.” That is the denomination that is usually used to talk about construction and railway assistant. CAF, as this internationally recognized trains and rail supplier is popularly known. A Spanish company, from Guipozcoa, who is reaping huge contracts outside our borders. And that is also in the international view. CAF. It is one of those companies that sounds to us its logo and its acronym. You know you’ve seen it but you may not be very clear where or in which sector you can place it. It is not so weird, do not worry, although CAF is among the 200 largest Spanish companies. To get an idea of ​​its size, In 2024 he billed 4,200 million euros and generated more than 100 million euros of benefit. In Euskadi it has some 3,000 employees But it has more than 16,000 people hired throughout the world, since the bulk of its business is in Europe (58%) but also has projects in America and Asia-Pacific. Israel. It is precisely one of his projects abroad that is generating great headaches to the company. The company has been working with the Israeli Shapir to build and expand the red and green lines of the Light Jerusalem Rail. The project is not any nonsense. It is valued at 1.8 billion euros of which CAF should pocket 500 million if you deliver its part in a timely manner. In addition, it would manage 50% of exploitation of extension over a period between 15 and 25 years. Settlements. For CAF, being immersed in a project delivered by Israel already should be a problem, taking into account the genocide that is being carried out in the Gaza Strip. But, as if that were not enough, we talk about building 50 stations along 27 kilometers of new roads … in illegal settlements. On this map It is observed how Israel is expanding both lines to unite the illegal settlements of Jerusalem is already built with those of west Jerusalem. The Palestine Liberation Organization (OP) assures That the final intention of this type of infrastructure is to create permanent links between these spaces to hinder the reversal of its entity and its return to Palestine. International pressure. This position is not only defended by the OLP. The Special Rapporteur before the United Nations Human Rights Council published the report From the economy of occupation to the economy of genocide. In it he pointed to CAF as one of the companies that does business with illegal Israeli occupations. Amnesty International also asked To governments that take into account which companies under their umbrella are taking advantage of this situation. And pointed to CAF directly: “The company has only ignored the different resolutions of the United Nations Security Council, the European Union and the International Court of Justice that Israeli settlements consider illegal in occupied Palestinian territory, as well as the fact that the United Nations Human Rights Council itself declared illegal the project of this tram in 2016 and 2017 stating that ‘clearly violates international law and relevant resolutions of UN “ What does Caf say. The last point they point out from Amnesty International has a lot of relevance. The company indicated in its sustainability reports that “the Light Rail project is in territories that are subject to political controversy (…) No violation of human rights derived from the participation of the CAF group has been detected in any project.” In addition, CAF has also published Recently a document in which your role in the project, ensuring the following: “Beyond compliance with the applicable regulatory framework, CAF is firmly committed to business ethics and respect for human rights in all its operations, including the value chain, based on the highest standards of responsibility and transparency. For this, CAF has a series of norms, procedures and systems, adopted to the highest level, which make up a complete compliance system, application to the entire group, as well as the third The purpose of preventing and acting against any behavior that could be contrary to ethics, the law or the internal normative system of CAF. And emphasize that the project was awarded in 2019. 2019. The Spanish company defends itself by ensuring that this project was awarded in 2019 by omitting any reference to a previous date. They point out that the approval was given before Hamas to Israel’s attack and the subsequent invasion of the Gaza Strip. But what is overlooked, as they explain in Amnesty International, is that the project had already declared illegal by the United Nations Human Rights Council in 2016 and 2017. In fact, in fact, in fact, French company Alstom ended up coming out of the same Shortly before the entry of CAF after the pressures received although, yes, at no time were political reasons alleged since the company maintained a project in the Israeli city of Tel Aviv. Too much money? Indicated by entities such as the United Nations Human Rights Council or Amnesty International, CAF is in the spotlight both inside and Out of our borders. In fact, his participation in the Israeli project was one of the alleged reasons to try to prevent the Spanish company from being done with The so -called “Century Contract”which could report up to 3,400 million euros for supplying SNCB trains (the Belgian Renfe). Within our borders, the debate has also reached institutions. From the PNV they ensure that CAF is being pointed out by “responsibilities that do not correspond to it” and that terminating the contract (as they ask from the Elkarrekin we can) “could mean the closure of the company or take it out”, in words collected by The mail. Other companies. As we said, the Israeli project of this lightwail to connect illegal settlements has already caused the exit of Alstom before 2019 but, derived from the genocide that Israel is carrying out in the Gaza Strip, some other Spanish companies have also stopped working for that state.
