Puigdemont responds to González and Guerra: "There are politicians who increase the price of quicklime"

The former president of the Generalitat Carles Puigdemont has linked this Jew to the ex-president of the government and his former vice-president Felipe González and Alfonso Guerra with the GAL, hours after both of them, together, will charge against the amnesty for those accused by the process that the Catalan independence they demand to invest in Pedro Sánchez.

Puigdemont has not mentioned either González or Guerra by name, but on the social network "There are politicians who raise the price of bread when they speak, and others who raise the price of quicklime," wrote the MEP, who has attached a screenshot of Google Trends that shows how the search for this word has increased in the search engine since this morning. "At the moment, it seems that there has been a rebound in Spanish interest in calcium oxide...", he insisted.

The quicklime is a reference to the first murder of the Antiterrorist Liberation Groups (GAL) perpetrated in 1983, when González and Guerra governed, against the members of ETA José Antonio Lasa and José Ignacio Zabala who were buried in quicklime by their kidnappers.

Although Puigdemont has not explicitly mentioned the two former presidents, the general secretary of Junts, Jordi Turull, has done so, who has attached a link to a news item about the event held yesterday at the Ateneo de Madrid, which was described as "blackmail." the amnesty with a message very similar to that of Puigdemont.

The connection that Junts makes of the so-called "old socialist guard" with State terrorism, tried and pardoned in the 90s, occurs shortly after the surprising connection made last week by the head of the municipal group of the independence party in Barcelona, ​​Xavier Trias, who linked the socialists with the coup d'état of 23-F, a few years before the appearance of the GAL, when González was general secretary of the PSOE and Guerra his number two.

Precisely, Alfono Guerra, who was interviewed this Thursday on Antena 3, has answered these words. "I have felt a little compassion," said the former vice president, who has attributed Trias' statements to the "play" that was played on him in reference to the loss of the mayor's office after the pact between the PSC, the PP and the commons to make Jaume Collboni mayor. "He doesn't really know what he's saying," he insisted.
