• Live War Ukraine and Russia, last minute

  • Invasion Map of Russia's War in Ukraine

The military attack launched by

Russia

in

Ukraine

last morning has been used in

Parliament

to remember the day of 1-O.

Junts per Catalunya deputy

Joaquim Calatayud

has compared from the lectern of the Autonomous Chamber the "violence" of the operation ordered by

Vladimir Putin

with the police action during the day of the unilateral self-determination referendum organized by the Generalitat in October 2017, under the presidency of

Carles Puigdemont

.

It has done so after the words of the President of the Parliament,

Laura Borràs

, at the beginning of the plenary session: "I regret that violence and war are still considered a method of resolving territorial conflicts and I appeal to mediation to preserve life and human rights in Ukraine".

In his turn to speak, Calatayud began the speech with an express mention of this new war to compare it with the incidents of

1-O

: "Obviously, with violence they will surely not fix anything in Ukraine, just as they did not fix anything with violence on 1 October October here, in our land".

Calatayud has not been a deputy in the Parliament since the beginning of the legislature, but instead obtained his act in June 2021, replacing

Eusebi Campdepadrós

.

The one who was first secretary of the Board of the Catalan Chamber during the last legislature left his seat when he was appointed secretary of Relations with the Administration of Justice of the Generalitat.

Calatayud has had a long career in local politics since he began as councilor for

Convergència i Unió

in 1995. Currently, he combines his position as deputy with that of mayor of Les Borges del Camp, a municipality in the province of

Tarragona

with 2,100 inhabitants. of which he has been the first mayor since 2007. Until his arrival at Parliament, he was also president of the Baix Camp County Council since 2011, a position he left last July at the end of the two-year mandate agreed with

Esquerra Republicana

in 2019 .
