• DUI Pere Aragonès refuses to declare independence in 2023 as required by the ANC

  • Diada Junts per Catalunya threatens to break the Government with Esquerra Republicana

Esquerra Republicana

and

Junts per Catalunya

try to heal their wounds before reaching the General Policy Debate at the end of the month and the commemoration of the fifth anniversary of 1-O.

The evident schism in the independence movement and within the Government that reflected last Sunday's

Diada

has given way to a week that completely differs from those that, during the last decade, followed September 11, when the secessionist movement emerged strengthened by the images of unity of the demonstrations of the

Catalan National Assembly

.

The leaders of both parties have met this afternoon discreetly to address the situation after yesterday there was a new chapter of disagreements on account of the proposal that the ANC made to

Pere Aragonès

to declare independence in the second half of 2023 Although the Minister of the Presidency,

Laura Vilagrà

, clearly expressed the Executive's rejection of an idea "improvised" and made "quickly and in a hurry", the Vice President of the Generalitat,

Jordi Puigneró

(JxCat), asked to "assess" it after not assuming the words of the republican leader as an official position of the Government.

According to

El Periódico

, the bipartite summit was attended by Aragonès, Vilagrà,

Marta Vilalta, Josep Maria Jové

and

Sergi Sabrià

, on behalf of ERC, and

Laura Borràs, Jordi Turull

, Puigneró,

Albert Batet

and

Josep Rius

, on behalf of Junts .

The directions of the two government partners have addressed during the meeting the creation of a "space of strategic direction" of the independence movement, as Turull, secretary general of the post-convergences, demanded again last Monday

,

by virtue of the sealed investiture pact

in

2021.

Junts

, Esquerra, the

CUP

,

the

Consell per la República

and sovereign entities such as the ANC,

Òmnium Cultural

or the

Association of Municipalities for Independence

.

But the composition of this sanhedrin could also lead to new controversies, since ERC is committed to opening the doors to "other actors of sovereignty" in order to broaden the party base to once again demand a self-determination consultation.

Without specifying names, it is intuited that

En Comú Podem

,

UGT

or

CCOO

, for example, would be some of the main organizations welcome to reissue transversal pacts for the right to decide like those prior to 2017.
