Jordi Sànchez

will not choose to repeat as general secretary of

Junts per Catalunya

next June, when the party will hold a Congress in which it will elect its new leadership.

The former president of the

Catalan National Assembly

, who in recent months has received several internal criticisms from some sectors of the party, announced it this Saturday at the National Council of

Postconvergents

in Alcarràs (Lérida).

Sànchez has justified his decision because "the times require a different way of working".

With his movement, he has said, he intends to make it easier for a single candidacy to be presented within two months that will allow the party to strengthen its cohesion ahead of next year's municipal elections.

The Congress of Junts will be held in the first fortnight of June in the south of France, which will allow the presence of the former president of the Generalitat and leader of the party,

Carles Puigdemont

, and the former councilors of the Govern

Toni Comín

and

Lluís Puig

, also persecuted by the Spanish Justice.

The still general secretary of JxCat has also referred in his speech to the controversy over

linguistic immersion

: "The enemies of the Catalan language today dress in black, they are part of

the Supreme Court

that has sentenced us to prison for having defended the ballot boxes and having voted

yes

in a referendum".

Sànchez thanked

Esquerra Republicana

,

PSC

and

En Comú Podem

for postponing the processing of the bill to modify the

Language Policy Law

after Junts dropped the initial agreement with those three parties.

This afternoon, precisely, several entities grouped in the

Enllaçats per la llengua

platform will demonstrate in the center of Barcelona against this agreement, considering that it puts an end to the immersion system in education in Catalonia.
