The president of the Generalitat reads a letter in English and Catalan in which he asks the European Union to "join the clamor of the people of Catalonia."
Quim Torra has decided to stop the activity of the Government during the day of the transfer of imprisoned independence leaders to Madrid, since they must appear before the jury when the trial begins on February 12. Despite the fact that his acts of government of Catalonia have not taken place today, the president has had time to appear before the media cameras to raise a shout more towards the international community, the one that still does not support the independentist cause as much as Puigdemont tries from Waterloo.
The Gothic Gallery of the Palau de la Generalitat has been the chosen place for such momentum of the president. Torra has read an institutional declaration in two languages, in English --mostly-- and in Catalan in which he has asked the international society and the European Union to "join the clamor of the people of Catalonia" before the trial of the cause of the 1-O and has asked "courage" to the President of the Government, Pedro Sanchez, to undertake "democratic changes" in Spain.
Judgment "against democracy"
Torra has referred to the judicial process faced by the leaders of the procés as a "trial against democracy" and has cried out to "citizens, governments, civil and human rights entities, media and personalities committed to justice and the freedom "of the international sphere to join the movement against this procedure" in defense of the principles and values that must make the world a fairer, safer and freer place ".
The president has assured that the underlying "problem" of this trial --ie, the Catalan independence movement- "is also a problem of the international community and, especially, of the European Union". He has referred again to the self-determination of the peoples as "some rights and freedoms" belonging to the Catalans as "European citizens" and that such "have to be protected by the community institutions".
Pointing to Sánchez
Once again, the leader of the Government has appealed to the President of the Government to ask him "courage, courage and will to undertake the democratic changes that Spain needs". According to Torra, these changes are necessary to "homologate" the country "to the full and advanced democracies of the world" and that they can only be guaranteed through "dialogue, negotiation and the exercise of the right to self-determination." He warned that the trial will serve to detainees independentists put a "mirror of shame" before the powers of the State and that this judicial procedure "will forever change our country [in reference to Catalonia] and its relationship with the Kingdom of Spain" .
In addition, in his conference has highlighted the commitment of his government - which has accompanied him during these statements - to "not faint or back down" before what he described as "wave of repression and the worrying democratic involution" of Spain and has denounced the "impunity violation" of fundamental rights. The preventive detention is, in Torra's opinion, a method of "punishment and chastisement before the trial" by the Spanish Justice and a "premeditated strategy to liquidate the expression and the democratic will of the Catalans".
