The PDeCAT increases the pressure and this Friday will register the amendment to the entire


Nationalists consider the gestures of the central government around the rapporteur insufficient, but keep the door open




   The pressure increases on Pedro Sánchez . Days after Esquerra registered in Congress an amendment to the totality of the General State Budgets, the PDeCAT announced that this Friday morning it will submit its amendment to the total of the Central Government Accounts in the register of the Spanish Parliament . The theses of the most radical leaders, such as Puigdemont, are imposed between the sovereignty forces, since the groups of both parties in Madrid were supporters until recently to allow the processing of budgets.

  The nationalists decided this Thursday after a meeting at the highest level held in the Catalan Parliament attended by all the heavyweights of the heir of Convergència. The meeting between the PDeCAT and JxCat came in full negotiations between the central government and the Catalan government on the figure of the rapporteur and the dialogue table between parties . The Minister of the Presidency, Elsa Artadi, present at the meeting, moved the last conversations held with the Vice President of the Government, Carmen Calvo. "We note that the offer presented by the Government is very far away from presenting the amendment to the whole," said PDeCAT spokesman in Congress, Carles Campuzano.

Yes, the Catalan nationalists said there is still time and scope to reach an agreement before the vote on Wednesday. «Until the last minute, we will keep our hands outstretched» , according to Campuzano. JxCAT and PDeCAT demand that, in order to withdraw the amendment to the totality, the Government would have to commit itself to dialogue with the presence of a rapporteur - with the functions of mediator and verifier - and accept to be able to speak of the right of self-determination. All this, within the framework of a table of state parties where the "basic problem" can be addressed, requests that the central executive refuses to accept , because for the time being it would place the figure of the rapporteur at the table of Catalan parties, which already exists.

The Moncloa and the Palau de la Generalitat have spent days probing names about who could be that neutral figure who acts as a notary in meetings, but while the government prefers a Catalan, the Generalitat is inclined towards a foreigner. Besides the rapporteur and the table of state parties (which would be PSOE and Podemos), ERC adds the demand to "put an end to the repression" , which is just as much as urging the Prosecutor's Office to lower the accusations of rebellion in the trial.

Campuzano suggested that the talks between Madrid and Barcelona have receded in the last hours. "We are further from the agreement than days ago , " he said. In this line, the Minister of the Presidency, Elsa Artadi, criticized Vice President Calvo on TV-3 for keeping a thing in private different than in public. Therefore, the sovereign leaders urged the President of the Government not to abandon the path of dialogue with the separatists and urged him not to give in to pressure from the parties of the right and the PSOE barons.
