Granada, (EFE).- The Executive of Andalusia will approve an agreement on Tuesday in which it will urge the Government of Spain to rectify its decision in the designation of A Coruña as the headquarters of the Spanish Agency for the Supervision of Artificial Intelligence (Aesia) and reconvene the process “in view of the obvious doubts that have been sown.”
The president of the Junta de Andalucía, Juanma Moreno, has asked to start “from scratch” in the process of choosing the agency Aesia “if there is nothing to hide, nothing to hide”, before “judicializing” the matter and “get into a legal mess”, so that “things are done right” and each city puts itself “in its place”.
With “the utmost respect” to A Coruña, Moreno pointed out at an informative breakfast that it is “obvious” that Granada has not competed “on equal terms”, for which he sees the solution as “very simple”: start from scratch “with all the transparency, with all the information” and putting all the candidate cities “to see who has the best chance”.
An “arbitrary” decision
Moreno recalled that the Board joined the judicial appeal against that decision and has opined that “as we learn more about the details, the evidence that it was an arbitrary, capricious decision increases.”
He has demanded the restart of the process “before the judge forces them to do so”, since each day that the Government passes without rectifying it “harms Granada and Andalusia”, for which the regional Executive will resort to an official agreement to claim it.
The Andalusian president has criticized not only the decision, but also “the forms”, since Granada “deserves an explanation” from the Government, because the city and Andalusia want to compete on an equal footing and that everyone be measured “exactly the same”. EFE
