"If we had made Feijóo president, all this would not happen." Under that title, former president Carles Puigdemont, now an MEP and factual leader of Junts, has sent a letter to all members of the European Parliament in which he attributes his party's support for the investiture of Pedro Sánchez and his refusal to agree with the PP of Alberto Núñez Feijóo the reactivation of the investigation of the alleged Russian plot of the process in the courts as well as that of the Tsunami Democràtic cause and the offensive of the PP in the European Parliament with these matters.
The letter was sent after the plenary session of the European Parliament, which meets this week in Strasbourg, voted today in favor of a resolution regarding alleged Russian interference in European democracies, in which it asks Spain to investigate the “alleged connections” between the Catalan independence movement – and he specifically cites the former Catalan president – and the Government of Vladimir Putin. The resolution, which is not binding, has gone ahead with votes in favor (433) from the majority groups and 56 votes against. The fact that Puigdemont was cited has been at the request of PP MEP Javier Zarzalejos.
Thus, Puigdemont points out to the other members of the Community Chamber that the reactivation of the investigation in the National Court of the 2019 Democratic Tsunami protests due to the sentencing of the process handed down by the Supreme Court, which occurred last 6 November, coincided with the date chosen in the first instance to announce the agreement between Junts and PSOE. The pact, however, arrived a few days later.
Likewise, the post-convergent leader points out that the case being investigated in the investigative court number 1 of Barcelona on the alleged ties of the independence movement with the Kremlin was extended on the eve of the debate in the plenary session of the Congress of Deputies of the Amnesty law, which was held on January 30, although the measure of criminal oblivion did not prosper and will be addressed again in a few weeks.
In that same sense, Puigdemont denounces that the PP has taken its offensive against the amnesty and the JxCat agreement with Sánchez to the plenary sessions of the European Parliament even before its approval and entry into force, and that these issues monopolized Sánchez's intervention with reason for the assessment of the rotating presidency of the Council of the European Union. "The Spanish PP has managed to impose its standards on the European conservative majority, and it is disastrous news for the future of the Union," laments the former president. "Those who have interfered the most in Spanish democracy have been precisely the patriotic police, the patriotic judges and the systemic corruption of the PP," the independence leader denounces in the final part of his writing.
In the three-page letter, he also recalls the statements of the former president of the government José María Aznar, who said at the beginning of November, before Judge Manuel García-Castellón reactivated the Tsunami case, "he who can speak, who speak, he who can do, let him do, he who can contribute, let him contribute, he who can move, let him move. "Everyone in his responsibility has to be aware of the crisis situation we are in," added the former Spanish president, whom Puigdemont defines as "the maximum reference of the truly powerful Spanish right."
Regarding the alleged Russian plot of the process, the former leader believes that "a construction of the case" has been made that "bears many similarities with the construction of the conspiracy theory in the 11-M attacks in Madrid" and that it has been addressed the matter with a "frightful lightness."
