President Artur Mass vote in the referendum of 9-N. / CARLES RIBAS
The lawsuit filed by the Attorney General of the State against the president of the Generalitat, Joana Ortega Vice President and Minister of Education, Irene Rigau, for organizing the 9-N has changed the way I thought follow Artur Mas. The Nationalists had dismissed the electoral advance with intent to capitalize on what they considered a success of citizen mobilization by over 2.3 million people went to vote and the repeated refusal of the Government to negotiate what Mas called the “definitive” referendum. However, the filing of the complaint on four counts against three members of the Catalan government can lead to Mas to decide at the end for early elections.
In the coming days will begin to clear the way and if hold the positions of the actors involved. The Catalan president will deliver a lecture tomorrow at the Auditorio del Forum in Barcelona under the title After 9-N: time to decide, time to add . The event invited various representatives of civil society and other parties and shall read as supporting the figure of the president of the Generalitat, that since the filing of the complaint has not stopped receiving messages of support.
No one in Convergència knows the content of the speech of Artur Mas morning but completely rule that you can announce early elections. Yes is expected to put the emphasis on the need to develop a unified list for the upcoming elections and that will intensify the pressure on ERC, which resists that scenario. Republicans reject the idea, insisting that “no alternative” to electoral advance, within insisted yesterday Marta Rovira, number two Party, who claimed back elections to decide “what new state” want the citizens.
“The lawsuit is a consideration,” admitted a leader of CDC. Their analysis is convergent if Esquerra considered as urgent the election date, Mas would be willing to call elections in exchange for the joint list that is integrated ERC but also prominent members of civil society. What in CDC called “a list of country” would not be easy to breed because the nationalists consider it vital that the spearhead Mas. “We want to make the list of yes-yes , not an electoral coalition that is the sum of CDC, Union, Esquerra and socialist bounced,” the same nationalist leader.
Catalan president also hopes that the Catalan National Congress (ANC) is over becoming an ally of your strategy. This partnership will decide on 29th its position on the political situation in Catalonia and could support the thesis Mas in favor of a joint list in elections with plebiscitary character. That same day Mariano Rajoy will travel to Barcelona to participate in an act of game that will explain its strategy to the Catalan political situation.
If the election were anticipate, should be convened not later than the end of held in January and March. On May 31 there will be local and the possibility to coincide with the regional is discarded because CiU has always wanted to be held apart from other elections.
A conference Mas morning and the pronouncement of the ANC next Saturday will follow Oriol Junqueras on December 2. The leader of Esquerra speak at a ceremony at the Palacio de Congresos de Catalunya titled Call to a new country: the Catalan Republic . That same day, the Catalan government presented in Parliament the draft Budget, which until now has not secured any support outside the deputies of CiU. In recent days there has been speculation supported by the PSC, but the scenario is unlikely because the Socialists require Rather than leave the sovereignism.
The movements of nationalists and republicans fit the announcement made ago few days the Minister of the Presidency and Spokesman of the Government, Francesc Homs, who explained that both parties a “truce” were given until December 15. By then it is very likely that the Superior Court of Catalonia and has ruled on the complaint of the attorney for 9-N. The current situation will have changed and nothing indicates that the strategy will be to harm you decide Artur Mas.
