@krls: “Spanish authorities do permanently use its legislation not to protect, but instead to attack and violate fundamental rights of its national minorities, and to repress its members”
@krls: “In 2017 Catalonia held an independence referendum. To some extent this was also a matter of basic rights, and a Catalan response to Spanish failure to break up with its fascist legacy, and to reform towards a real democratic regime and an effective decentralization”
1/13 On the morning of 23rd of September 2019, 9 people were arrested by the Spanish paramilitary Guardia Civil police, accused by the Spanish National High Court of intending to prepare violent action.

What do you think about that Ms. @vonderleyen #SOTEU2020
Catalans are EU citizens, netto payers of your gages and privileges. We are treated as 2nd class citizens in Spain AND in the EU. Stop ignoring us, we also deserve to be treated with respect+dignity!

Today we are supporting our legitimate Minister of Culture in exile @LluisPuigGordi. #Lawfare is not the solution for the Catalan question. Amnesty for all political prisoners and exiles.

The CIA discloses 25 years later a report on the creation of a terrorist group (GAL) by former Prime Minister of Spain Felipe González and his cabinet (PSOE) with the support of the army to fight Basque terrorism by ETA #GAL #ThisIsTheRealSpain
Half of its victims had no connection to ETA whatsoever. For years it was a well-known secret that Mr. X, aka the main responsible of this State terrorism operation, was Felipe González #GAL #ThisIsTheRealSpain
José Barrionuevo, his Minister of Inner Affairs, and Rafael Vera, his Secretary of State for Security, were condemned to 10 years of prison for the kidnapping and murder of a French citizen, Segundo Marey. #GAL #ThisIsTheRealSpain
◼️◻️ After the International call to protect the rights of prosecuted #Catalan civic and political leaders, #Spain is positioning agents in @UN and @EUroparl_en decision-making boards, directly putting in danger the protection of human rights.

1/5 When separation of powers is not granted, politics is not trustworthy any more. Oriol Junqueras is illegally in prison at least since the sentence of the UE Court of Justice on 19th December, which confirmed his immunity as MEP. #StandUpForCatalonia
2/5 Today in the morning, his party ERC signed an agreement in favour of the vote of confidence of Pedro Sánchez in the weekend, so that he can make a government. #StandUpForCatalonia
3/5 In the afternoon the electoral board, a purely administrative entity, barres both the President of Catalonia, Quim Torra, and MEP Oriol Junqueras from holding office. #StandUpForCatalonia
