“.
In an appearance on the afternoon of this Monday, Puigdemont Vaticino that “no court” of the European Union will fail against him and said that after four years he has appeared in the Belgian, German and Italian jurisdictions and “Spain has not obtained any of its
Political objectives “As they are” that we can not speak “, that they can not circulate in Europe and” have no voice to make a political action towards independence. ”
