The rg-31s, therefore, are located far from

The qala-I-naw base , where the area of ​​greatest taliban activity is located . Military sources consulted by ecd explain that this strip, the most dangerous for foreign troops, is located to the north. Precisely, the convoy in which the soldier who died on monday was traveling was returning to this base from bala murghab (in the north). It covered, therefore, the so-called ' lithium route ', an area located in a valley that the intelligence services describe as preferred by the insurgency . On this route, where the spaniards still carry out patrols aboard bmrs or linces , there are many gorges where several attacks have already occurred , in addition to the one on monday. Specifically, since may 2009 there have been seven attacks that have affected foreign troops. Intelligence indicates that it is a territory dominated by tribes and warlords who do not accept the military of other countries.The granting of public aid for professional associations is contemplated in the organic law of rights and duties of civil guards. And for them to become effective, a special budget item must be enabled within the general state budgets , approved at the end of the year.



As the government did not include it 'de facto', the popular party presented an amendment for it to be taken into consideration . During the parliamentary process, the amendment was rejected. This fact generated controversy within the Special Database associations that contemplated and requested an 'equalization of rights' with the unions of the national police corps. According to the official state gazette , these have been granted 400,000 euros . The estimates made by the professional associations within the civil guard are that a similar amount would correspond to them. According to what different associations tell el confidencial digital, the growing representation of agents within the force is taking its toll on them because the commitments made by the general directorate are not met. The previous deputy operational director , lieutenant general varela, was reluctant to the advance of 'unionism'. His replacement, alfonso cardiel, did extend his hand to them when taking office – see it here – although from an effective point of view nothing has materialized.







It has already been a year (it was at the end of january) since the first democratic elections were held to appoint members of the civil guard personnel council and the shortcomings reported by the associations are growing: -- the development of the board regulations has not been approved -- there has been no progress in the release of members and representatives -- there are no premises or means for meetings -- and the deadlines for the periodic council meetings are not metlast friday, the spanish ambassador to haiti, juan fernández trigo , received countless expressions of affection from fellow diplomats from the ministry of foreign affairs. And it was in a closed-door meeting with those who work at the torres ágora ministerial headquarters, as el confidencial digital has been able to confirm - see it here -. Fernández trigo was happy to be back in spain after the experience in haiti and he made it known to the groups of people who approached him to express their encouragement and support. In the exchange of words between him and his interlocutors, the diplomat appeared 'vital, in good spirits and good health' , this is how some attendees explain it to this confidential person. He was greeted, among others, by the secretary of state for foreign affairs, ángel lossada .
