However, they have excluded the proposal from Moncloa. In the press conference after the Council of Ministers, the spokeswoman for the Spanish government, Isabel Rodríguez, assured that in this crisis situation we are going through, the referendum is neither the priority nor the most important.
The President of the Generalitat, Pere Aragonesproposed this Tuesday to propose to the government of Spain a “clarity agreementto lay the groundwork for holding a referendum on self-determination, a mechanism similar to the Clarity Act that Canada passed for the referendum on independence of quebec.
This was announced during his speech at the general policy debate that started in the Catalan parliament, when it unraveled its plan for the “resolution of the political conflict” with a proposal “aimed at the whole country and with the aim of representing a large majority of the citizens”.
In this way, the President of the Generalitat proposes this proposal in two phases: an immediate first to gather the maximum consensus in Catalonia around this initiative, and a second to take it to the negotiations with the government.
Aragonès believes that this proposal, which he previously communicated to Junts, is viable for the citizens of Catalonia to vote for their future, he also believes that it “includingso that the whole population feels involved and all parties, both those who defend independence and those who do not, recognize this instrument, and also receive the guidance and support of the international community.
From Moncloa, however, they rejected the proposal. the government spokesman, Elizabeth Rodriguez, has insisted that its framework of relations with the Generalitat be the dialogue table. “The framework within which the government operates in its relations with the Generalitat is the dialogue table that met at the end of last summer, where we move forward in the interest of standardization,” he said at the press conference after the cabinet meeting. .
Today, more than ever, citizens need political leaders who… let’s devote ourselves to important things, to eating thingsr”, said Rodríguez, who has indicated that “this is what this government is fundamentally committed to”, to “provide an answer to the citizens” in the current situation and “to cope with a process of modernization” of the country ” where Catalonia is a very important part to make it happen.”
