## 4 Discussion
It is true that, when compared with previous studies, it is important to consider that these were conducted in earlier reference frames [52; 51], which could

To accurately compare the new insights provided by the analysis of the network used with previous studies in this region, Figure 7 displays the velocities relative to EURA from the most representative prior research, including [4; 10; 18]. Focusing a little more on the different blocks described in the results, the stations in the southwestern Iberian Peninsula exhibit similar results; these measurements consistently show a westward motion of the Betic Cordillera relative to the more stable Iberian Peninsula, which is consistent with previous studies [2; 4; 10; 18; 53]. However, there are no stations close to LIJA, which shows discrepancies compared to the analyses in [10], presenting a pronounced turn to the north.
