SPAIN AND CATALONIA BEFORE AN ECONOMIC POLITICAL AND OTHER TRIAL

It is now already evident that the process sovereignty of Catalonia 2012-2019, “political war” that the parties and political Catalan independents sustain with Spain, known colloquially as the Catalan "procés", is a group of facts that they have left developing from the year 2012 in the autonomous community of Catalonia with the objective of achieving the self-determination and the independence of Catalonia of Spain. 

I won't make recount of all that happened it is already well-known more than enough for all the Spaniards and part of the world, but if I want to make stress that in spite of the years of proposals fights and other today you is still awaiting that it is judged the Catalan politicians that decided on one of October of 2017 to put some urns to celebrate a consultation referendum to validate if most of the Catalan town agreed with the independence of Spain. 

The result was that "YES", and followed act, the Spanish government annuls the autonomy I take prisoners to all the members of the government of the Generalitat that stayed in Catalonia and the included rest the president Carlos Puigdemont to that you exiles outside of Spain to be able to continue, like they have made this way, to put in evidence many of the juridical and political incoherence’s that the Spanish state has taken against Catalonia. 

During this time 2017 / 2019 the government from Spain has changed it has passed of hands of the right (PP) to the socialist left PSOE, this change supposed a small light of hope for Catalonia that hoped to see a political change that alleviates the pressure and the unjustifiable performance of the judicial stamens maintaining to the consellers prisoners without deposit and without trial, now already during more than 16 months, but the things continue equally. Catalonia gives a lot of fear to Spain and Europe it governs who it governs, because it is the economic column that sustains Spain.  

Now it arrives the moment that Pedro Sánchez government has to try to consolidate with the approval of his own budgets of the state and the party’s Catalan independents announced this Monday that will present amendments to the entirety of the government's Budget that faces his first voting next week, what puts in risk his approval and the socialist continuity Pedro's Sánchez in the power. 

Sánchez almost controls a fourth part of the Parliament's benches and he needs to approve his bills the same majority that lifted him in the power last June, with the votes of Podemos, the Catalan nationalists and other minority parties. Several members of the Government included the minister of Treasury, they have noticed that of not having presupposed the legislature he/she would shorten, and elections would be summoned before 2020. 

The independents with parliamentary representation (PdeCAt and ERC) they outlined amendments to the entirety that they could move away if Sánchez consents to his political demands. PDeCAT, the party that controls the presidency of the Generalitat of Catalonia, wants the socialist government to begin a dialogue commission among the political parties of state environment "to approach the Catalan" problem politically, he told to Reuters his parliamentary spokesman, Carles Campuzano. 

ERC, the party that has led the recent electoral surveys in Catalonia, opted for a harder focus. He requested to the socialists that allowed a referendum of independence in Catalonia and that they influenced in the trial that begins next week in the Supreme Tribunal against the 12 Catalan politicians that led the independents process. 

The Spanish Office, he has requested prison hardships of up to 25 years for positions of rebelliousness and graft of public funds to organize a self-determination referendum illegal declared October 1 for the Spanish Justice. The trial of the Catalan secessionist leaders will begin February 12. That is also the last day in that the parts should move away their amendments to the budget proposal. 

In this point it is necessary to remember that in Spain he will judge the politicians that decided to confront the Spanish reaction staying physically in the country this is important to underline it to understand the fact that Catalonia didn't trust of the impartiality of a trial that is based on some accusations that alone they come the district attorneys and Spanish tribunals. 

Since the 9 processed that they will begin to be judged the day February 12 they will be it for some crimes that to the other accused that decided exile outside of Spain and that they have already been judged by tribunals of Belgium, Germany and Switzerland, for the same crimes that he will judge them the Spanish supreme tribunal, they have already been judged and declared innocent for not seeing, in these international tribunals, any criminal reason for those that the Spanish justice claimed them its extradition. 

"Up to February 12, they have time to meditate, to study the figures well and to value the opportunity cost well for the citizens from Catalonia", the minister of Territorial Administration, Meritxell Batet said in Valencia. As an intent of he begs so that the Catalan independents supports to the PSOE and their budgets. February 14, the amendments to the entirety will be voted in way accumulated in the Parliament and they should be approved by simple majority. 

The first secretary of the PSC, Miquel Iceta, he has rushed this Tuesday a counteroffer to the party’s consistent independents in negotiating the bills of the Generalitat if PDeCAT and ERC support the approval of the General Budgets of the State (PGE). "If there is more economic margin, and this implies to approve the PGE, we are willing to negotiate those of here", he has emphasized in an interview to TV3. Pedro Sánchez Government will attempt "until the last moment" to obtain the support of the party’s independents, Iceta has assured after remembering that they can retire the amendments to the entirety in any moment. He would not give anything for lost", Iceta has emphasized that has also invited to not uniting this circumstance with the trial to the procés that pulls up the next one February 12.
