A month ago, the former CUP deputy Anna Gabriel defended in an interview that "neither the dialogue table with the State will lead to exercising the right to self-determination nor the approval of the DUI in a parliament will lead to independence." A whole bath of reality that the CUP has assumed. "I think that a sense of reality has been lacking at one time or another for all the agents of the independence movement," the coup deputy Xavier Pellicer acknowledged this Friday in an interview on the program Cafè d'Idees de La 2, asked if the Assembela Nacional Catalana (ANC) lacks a "sense of reality".
"It was demonstrated in 2017 and 2018 that there are no magic formulas and that no one has a wand to say that tomorrow there will be independence," admitted the CUP parliamentarian, who has claimed "the principle of reality before anything else", after yesterday The president of the ANC, Dolors Feliu, reproached the pro-independence parties (ERC, Junts and CUP) in the same program for not having a plan to achieve independence.
In any case, Pellicer has not refrained from charging against Esquerra's current strategy, now alone in the Government, understanding that normalizing relations with the State demobilizes the independence movement. "ERC is wrong when it states that the way to resolve the conflict is to generate a certain normalization of relations with the State because we think that this distances citizens from the independence movement and what it does is demobilize", warned the deputy to warn that " mobilization is the element that leads us to balance ourselves with the State, which has much more power and much more strength". "The only way to face it is with popular mobilization", he has settled.
In this sense, Pellicer has accused ERC of carrying out a "fake negotiation, like a year ago" of the State's general budgets in which "nothing new is being negotiated, nothing different, nor anything that the State ends up fulfilling or in investments, nor in the way out of the political conflict, nor in real transformations".
Regarding the possible results of the dialogue table between the ERC Government and the Spanish Government, the CUP deputy has stated that the effects of a reform of the crime of sedition in the Penal Code would be "absolutely cosmetic" to the extent that , as he has related, there are almost 4,000 people in reprisals and of these there are very few accused of sedition".
On the other hand, Pellicer has intervened in the controversy over the Mossos and has denounced "a fourth power" in the Catalan police force. Specifically, he has lamented a dynamic within the body that, in his opinion, comes from years ago that causes "own policies to be generated outside of the governments" that makes the Mossos commanders act with "their own ideology" and "without democratic control".
