  • Secessionism: Cross-declarations between ANC and ERC deepen the disunity

Although the president of the Generalitat , Quim Torra, promised them very happy last Monday at the words of the representatives of the CUP opening the dialogue to enter the Government or approve the budgets of the regional administration for next year, After several years of extension, the anti-system formation threw a jug of cold water to the aspirations of the Executive.

And it is that the CUP conditioned its decisive votes to the Government to promote a mobilization in the street and permanently of all the independence movement in response to the ruling of the Supreme Court against the sovereign leaders prosecuted for rebellion, as long as it is condemnatory.

The deputy of the CUP Carles Riera subordinated his support to Torra to agree with the Government "the course" to move towards self-determination and independence.

This "course" will pass its litmus test with the Supreme Court ruling, since the CUP considers that a mobilization wave must be generated greater than October 1 and 3, 2017 and sustained, in order to drag parties and institutions towards a break with the State ». In statements to the Being, he added that "rejection must go beyond independence, because fundamental democratic rights are at stake that affect everyone, independence and non-independence."

Riera wants to agree the route of the Government towards independence rather than start negotiating the Budget of the Generalitat of 2020 and believes that its support for the accounts goes through knowing if the Executive «has clear objectives. We must agree on a course, mark a line to achieve them, as well as defend the social rights and sovereignty of the Parliament before the State, ”said the deputy of the CUP.

In addition, he added that if this negotiation does not take place "hardly" there will be a pact "on other issues such as the Budget." The anti-system believes that these should be designed "at the service of a change." Riera believes that there is margin: "We are at a zero point because the Government has not yet submitted the Budgets and we have not had a single meeting, although we know that Vice President Pere Aragonès will start calling them in September."

A few days ago, Torra showed his absolute confidence in the approval of public accounts: «It is our commitment and our responsibility. The independence majority must agree on the budget and move towards the republic. The republican project is that of the people who trusted us ».

In addition, sources from the Government indicated that there is a "total predisposition to agree" the next Budgets with the CUP to be "the engine of the republic" and noted that "there is no reason to talk about electoral progress because there may be a majority to approve the bills".
