Spain has woken up mired in a significant electoral hangover after knowing the results of the general elections of this 23J. Meanwhile, the former minister and MEP of JxCat, Clara Ponsatí, announced her reappearance this Monday in Barcelona: “Taking advantage of the cool of the morning I took a walk to Casa Vicenç. “As long as we continue here, Catalonia will continue to stand. Good morning, Barcelona! “, She has written her in a tweet.

After that, the Mossos d’Esquadra have focused on verifying the presence of Ponsatí in Barcelona to carry out his arrest, as pointed out by sources from the body. Apparently, as she herself has communicated, again through Twitter, she has been arrested: “I have been illegally detained again in Barcelona.” Ponsatí has ​​later revealed that she has not responded to any questions by order of her lawyer. She has not testified and has been released.

On June 21, the Supreme Court judge, Pablo Llarena, issued a national arrest warrant against her for not appearing before him on April 24. At that time, he summoned her to inform her of her prosecution for a crime of disobedience in the “procés”. To justify her absence, he claimed that she had two commitments in Brussels on the same day, appointments that were “incompatible” with hers in Madrid. Clara Ponsatí is also prosecuted for disobedience after the penal reform that repealed sedition and modified embezzlement.

Llarena explained that the reasons given to justify his absence were scheduled for the afternoon, so they were reasonably compatible matters through the video conference request.

In her Twitter post, Clara Ponsatí reappeared in Barcelona with an image that places her next to the modernist Casa Vicens designed by Antoni Gaudí in the Gràcia neighborhood of Barcelona. “Taking advantage of the cool morning, I have taken a walk to Casa Vicenç. While we are here, Catalonia will continue to stand. Good morning, Barcelona!” She wrote.

General Election 2023

The head of the list of JxCat to Congress, Míriam Nogueras, warned after knowing the results of the general elections this Sunday that her party would not make Sánchez president of the Government “in exchange for nothing”, at the same time that she assured that her priority “is Catalonia” and not “the governability of the State”.

The seven seats that JxCat has obtained are decisive for forming a government, and it is that the progressive majority that made Pedro Sánchez president the last inauguration would add 172 seats, which are four less than those needed to achieve an absolute majority.

Nogueras appeared at the JxCat electoral headquarters together with the rest of the party members, in addition to its president, Laura Borràs, and its general secretary, Jordi Turull, at the press conference where he predicted “a new stage” in which the “unity” of the pro-independence party will have to be recovered. “We will not move an inch because we do have a memory. Sánchez has many pending duties with Catalonia. A giant hug to Xavier Trias because Pedro Sánchez took the mayoralty from him by agreeing with the right,” said Nogueras.
