That the leader of

calls for the

And that is precisely what

did during his election, last Saturday, as the head of the para-institutional body devised in 2018 by himself after he fled to Belgium.

Despite opting for this strategy and criticizing the work of the

that his political party shares with

, the former Catalan president showed no intention of abandoning his post in the party in his speech.

Simply, he assured: «If roles collide or there is a danger that they do so, I will always prioritize the Consell».

Puigdemont's aura within this entity is undeniable, but even so, some internal voices have appeared that reproach the incoherence of his words.

The former Minister of Education
