Catalan president Quim Torra called Spain’s acting president Pedro Sánchez again today, with the same result as in the last three days: no answer. Four days in a row of unsuccessful attempts. In a press conference, Torra insisted that “Spain must engage in unconditional dialogue and propose political solutions”. We must “sit and talk”, he said, using an expression that was world trending topic yesterday in Twitter.
While appealing to Sánchez’s “statesmanship” in trying to encourage him to speak to him about the issues Catalonia currently faces, Torra also stated that he would always defend the “right to self-determination.” The Catalan president described how he has attempted to speak to Sánchez for four days and has not yet been able to get through to him.
After the lengthy prison sentences of the Catalan referendum trial and the subsequent massive protests in Catalonia, “to deny the dialogue at this moment is an absolute irresponsibility that I am convinced that the international community will not understand in any way”, according to the Catalan president.
