“Although we respect the right to abstain, we declare that it is not useful to defend Catalonia,” Juntes warned Friday morning at an event in Santa Coloma de Graminete, where it was also indicated that it was “a one-day decision that we could push for years.” “It doesn’t bring us closer to independence, but it does take us away from the ability to change things,” they note from JxCat in a statement.

Thus, Junts’ ambition is to be decisive in the next legislature. For this reason, postconvergence parties claim to escape the dichotomy of having to choose between PP or PSOE. They chanted: “Catalonia!” Former President Carles Puigdemont stressed that “all elections for Gones will be launched from Catalonia” in this sense on Friday in a live videoconference at the last rally. “Neither left nor right, Catalonia; neither PSOE nor PP, Catalonia; neither Sanchez nor Figo, Catalonia and President Puigdemont, Catalonia, Catalonia, Catalonia,” Nogueras later finished.

If necessary, there will be a discussion within the formation.
