Threatens declared independent formally


Catalan president, Mr. Puigdemont
USPA NEWS - Had warned spokesman of regional government: “Catalonia no surrender“ in order to achieve independence. And Thursday, about to comply with the term given by Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy to repay the legality in Catalonia, the Catalan president answered Mr. Rajoy with blackmail: if applicable article 155 of Spanish Constitution, Catalans declare formally independence of the region.
The letter from the Catalan president, Mr. Puigdemont, sent to the Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy on Thursday, about to comply with the second and final term given by the Spanish Government to Catalonia abide by the current legality, insists ask dialogue, but threatens declare formally independence if the Spanish Government applies article 155 of the Constitution, that empowers Mr. Rajoy to take administrative control of the region rebel. The letter was qualified “blackmail inadmissible“ by constitutionnalists parties: the conservative Popular Party, that support the Government; the Socialist Party and centrist Citizens.
The deliberate ambiguity af the regional president of Catalonia and his refusal to back and return to the current legality were received by the Spanish Government as the last failed attempt to resolve the Catalan political crisis via peaceful. The Government of Mr. Rajoy held Saturday an extraordinary Cabinet to approve the proposed implementation of the 155 that must be authorized by the Senate. Prime Minister Rajoy have the support of the Socialist Party and the centrist Citizens, which reinforce most that conservatives have in the Senate. And features of the endorsement of the European Union to take the necessary steps in order to restore the legality in Catalonia. It said on Thursday German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French Prime Minister Emmanuel Macron. And is that Europe played his future in the Catalan crisis because if the Spanish region got independence, many other European regions could continue to suit and the European unit would exploit.
The administrative intervention of Catalan autonomy will be limited. Will focus on fully control of finances and autonomic Police, but keep in their positions to the members of the Catalan government and the regional Parliament. At least at first. Only will lost their functions the president of the regional government of Catalonia, Carles Puigdemont, because the aim of intervention is convene autonomic elections next January and that's a power of the Catalan president that must be recover the Spanish Government. Sources of Moncloa Palace in Madrid suggest that the Senate could vote the application of article 155 at the end of this month and the first measures apply in the early days November.
While from rows-independence are made appeals to manifest itself in the streets and to make money both Catalan banks who have left the region: CaixaBank and Bank Sabadell. The independence are committed to win on the streets what can't win on the polls or law. And disregard warnings receiving from all instances, as President of the European Parliament, Antonio Tajani, who said that “Catalonia is alone“ in his derived secessionist. “No European country will support independence,“ concluded. Or as of the most 900 companies that have already moved its headquarters out of Catalonia. For the economic vice president of the regional government of Catalonia, Oriol Junqueras, this is not important because “are many more companies that are“ in Catalonia. And insisted deny legal uncertainty existing in his region, which is frightening to corporations and multinationals.
