Amendments The PSOE gives total protection to Puigdemont to prevent the Supreme Court from arresting him
Criticisms Junts boasts about Ribera's accusation to Judge García-Castellón: "Not even the Government can ignore it anymore"
Junts
is not willing to give in with the amnesty amendments and is already warning the PSOE with a new push.
Once the juicy loot was tied up on account of the first decrees of the Government of Pedro Sánchez - it facilitated their approval in exchange for total control of immigration or promoting the return of companies to Catalonia, in addition to shielding the amnesty in case of appeal before the European Justice -
Carles Puigdemont
's party
now warns that it will take the "battle" to the end to include terrorism crimes in the decriminalization of the process.
"There is room, we fight until the last minute," said neoconvergent spokesperson
Míriam Nogueras
yesterday .
Junts' objective is none other than to approve a "comprehensive amnesty that includes everyone and is immediately applicable" to shield Puigdemont.
That is, it encompasses those prosecuted for Tsunami Democràtic - with the former president of the Generalitat
and Marta Rovira
, both accused of terrorism, at the center of their demands - and also the members of the CDR who were detained in Operation Judas and they are awaiting trial.
"We are where we were," summarizes the neoconvergent party about the "margin" they give the PSOE regarding their amendments.
"We will work tirelessly to cover everything," supported this weekend the party's spokesperson in Catalonia,
Josep Rius,
another of the leaders closest to Puigdemont.
What's more, Junts has raised the price of its demands as a result of the public statement made by the third vice president, Teresa Ribera, of the judge of the
National Court, Manuel García-Castellón
, saying that "it has an important political involvement and usually comes out "collation at sensitive moments" after the judge insisted on charging Puigdemont with terrorism.
In this sense, yesterday Nogueras redoubled his criticism of the judicial leadership, taking advantage of the controversy that arose and demanded that "action be taken" in this regard.
"It is undeniable that the situation is what it is and not even the Spanish
Government
can ignore that these members of the judiciary, whether by action or omission, are those most responsible" for the situation derived from the process.
And at this point, the leader added: "It is necessary that all those who have endorsed this injustice act out of responsibility."
In fact, and despite sharing a large part of the claims with
Esquerra
, the neoconvergent party once again distances itself from the Republicans and fights the battle on its own.
"We have already warned that we are going so far, we have not signed a legislative agreement," they add in Junts about the negotiations with the Government, now focused on the Amnesty Law.
Be that as it may, the truth is that both pro-independence parties keep alive the amendments so that the decriminalization of the process covers the causes of
Tsunami
and the
CDR
and "continue talking" with the PSOE.
This Tuesday the Justice Commission meets to debate them openly, although the "margin" does not end until next day the 30th in Congress, when the plenary session is expected to be convened.
A limit to which the neo-convergents are willing to go to force a "comprehensive and immediate" amnesty, the two sine qua non conditions to unequivocally shield Puigdemont's future.
"The objective is to achieve a robust text," admitted Josep Rius in this sense.
Apart from the inclusion of terrorism crimes, Junts also maintains that it is essential to reform article 4 of the Law to clarify that the foreseeable questions of unconstitutionality that arise or those of a prejudicial nature before the European Justice will not affect the immediate obligation. to lift active precautionary measures when the amnesty comes into force.
And to be able to deactivate the causes that have their origin in the supposed dirty war - the lawfare - against the independence movement, as demanded by
Puigdemont
's party .
