It was not an epic event.
The third anniversary of 1-O passed as lackluster as the last Diada.
Haggard.
Without great institutional acts that vindicated the illegal referendum that led half the Government to jail and the other half to flee abroad.
But it did serve such a significant date for
Carles Puigdemont
and the recently disqualified
Quim Torra to
launch the Catalan electoral campaign, setting the objective of exceeding 50% of the votes in the regional elections, and later, brandishing a majority never reached so far, to recover the frontal collision with the state.
«Let's get ready to make the 1-O fully effective.
The state will not allow us.
Let's get ready for the confrontation, ”proclaimed the Consell per la República, the paragovernmental body with which the fugitive intends to direct the process.
Puigdemont defended that "there is no alternative to ratifying the 1-O in the next Catalan regional elections," tracing the message that Torra has been launching since he was disqualified.
The fugitive warned that, if the independence movement exceeds 50% of the votes, the achievement must have "real political consequences" and warned ERC that this implies "all the independence forces."
"It has to be the opportunity that the people of Catalonia ask of us, let's get ready for the day after these elections," added Torra, who continues to seek that longed-for "
momentum
" in which separatism finds the pretext and sufficient motivation to reactivate the challenge started in the fall of 2017, with the 1-O and the unilateral declaration of independence.
To make a secessionist proclamation of these characteristics again and defend it with all the consequences is what the ANC has been proposing since the Diada.
The main Catalan independence organization again demanded yesterday that all separatist parties commit to once again break the law to unilaterally apply the result of 1-O if for the first time they prevail in votes in the elections.
ERC flatly rejects this possibility and continues to pursue an impossible image of unity that protects it in the arduous electoral campaign that lies ahead.
The «substitute president»
Pere Aragonès
opted to reissue the current Government with JxCat and join the CUP.
This is how the general coordinator of ERC tried to rule out a tripartite pact with the PSC and the commons.
With the socialists it is "impossible," said Aragonès, in order not to be accused of autonomy.
Meanwhile, the clock towards the elections began to tick.
The ten-day period began this Thursday for the president of the Parliament,
Roger Torrent
, to verify if there is a candidate for the Presidency who can relieve Torra.
Otherwise, an investiture must be deemed impossible, two months later the elections will be automatically called and will be held 54 days later, at the beginning of February.
Aragonès will most likely face a list headed by Puigdemont and a number two who can take over.
