In front of a busted canopy and sealed to warn of broken glass. "In this zone zero of the violent ones" that is the Urquinaona square . There Albert Rivera wanted to stage his frontal rejection of the violence that Barcelona has burned during the last week and, above all, the political movement that, in his opinion, has sponsored it: independence.

Rivera has charged with harshness against the resolution introduced on Tuesday in the Parliament by ERC, Junts per Catalunya and the CUP, in defense of the right of self-determination and against the ruling of the Supreme Court on the 'process', because it represents a new incitement to " crime". For the president of Citizens, it is "a very serious fact, returns to separatism outside the law."

In the opinion of the leader of the main party of Catalonia, the text agreed by the independence movement implies a "disobedience to the Constitutional Court", which last week personally warned Roger Torrent, president of the Catalan chamber, of the legal consequences of new the Parlament at the service of separatism.

"Two years later, we return to violence in the streets and to disobedience in the Parliament. We return to the streets, to Quim Torra breastfeeding to disobey the Constitutional Court," Rivera emphasized.

In the opinion of the 'orange' president, the mere fact that the Mesa del Parlament admitted the proposed resolution to proceedings would already entail an legality to the legality indicated by the Constitutional Court: "The path of disobedience is a crime," he emphasized. "Of course you can't vote and our group will propose that it not be done," he said.

Rivera has also replied to Miquel Iceta, leader of the PSC, who has taken the condemnation of violence that the president of the Generalitat has done for good. "We have a president who says one thing in the morning and in the afternoon cuts roads. I don't consider Torra to be the right person to run Catalonia," he said. In an interview given to CNN, Quim Torra has turned his message of the last days: "Violence does not represent me at all, and I condemn it. Moreover, this could hinder our path to independence."

And Iceta has applauded: "The best reaction he has had has been tonight." This phrase implies a kind of unauthorization of Pedro Sánchez, since the only reason why the president of the Government does not pick up Torra's phone is because of his lack of explicit condemnation of violence. That is why Rivera has stressed that the only call that Sanchez has to make to Torra is to "stop him". "You have to act Mr. Sánchez, this is not solved by visiting Barcelona for two hours. You have to call Torra to stop him, because as long as Torra continues in front there is no solution."

In his opinion, the procedure to apply the 155 in Catalonia must be started, to "urgently recover the powers of the State - especially in prison matters." "We have to bet everything on coexistence," he harangued constitutionalism.

Rivera, who has visited two establishments affected by the riots, has announced that Citizens are going to ask both the City Council of the City and the Generalitat "to appear in all legal proceedings to collect until the last hard" of the damage that they have generated "the cafés" independentistas. "You can not forgive even a penny to violent people who set fire and throw cobblestones. Who pays it."
