Spain: scathing setback for Sánchez on amnesty for Catalan separatists. Paradoxically, it was the party of the independentist Carles Puigdemont, Junts per Catalunya, which voted against this highly controversial bill.
Junts specifically demanded that the text guarantee the application of this amnesty to people accused of "terrorism", without possible exception, or of "treason" The amnesty bill was a condition demanded by the Catalan separatists in exchange for their essential support for the mid-November reappointment.
