According to reporting by BBC News, Spain’s Transport Minister Óscar Puente has stated he will not resign despite growing pressure following a devastating high-speed rail collision.

The disaster occurred earlier in the week when two high-speed trains collided, resulting in the deaths of at least 69 people. The crash has sparked intense scrutiny over railway safety and operational protocols.

In the aftermath of the collision, political opponents and members of the public have called for ministerial accountability and Mr. Puente's resignation. However, the minister has maintained his position as investigations into the incident continue.
