  • The dismissal of Renfe's president, Raül Blanco, highlights chronic instability in the public railway company.
  • The disastrous management will not be resolved with another face-change, nor with a more political than technical profile for the replacement.
  • Blanco had managed to professionalize the company, improving its profitability and governance.
  • The railway chaos proves that the Government's priority is far from ensuring territorial cohesion.

Conclusion: Politicizing an essential public service like Renfe will not resolve the ongoing crisis. Governmental priorities seem to be misaligned from the current challenges.
