those who are not happy about this news, those who thinks that Catalans have no right to be independent, well, I can't override your right to your opinions, but I still remember that violence is a growing process, when dealing with agitators. it's best to follow it diplomatically,or risk the worst possible outcome.

Despite yesterday's event, imagine all powerful EU couldn't talk nor condemn the violence. Is one thing to vote for a referendum and is another thing for the referendum to be recognize by world bodies and agency.
The battle has just started. let see where it Will end sha

The EU have long stated that the referendum is illegal, same with the catalonia high court.

Their is no battle, They're done with their joke referendum but would continue to remain in Spain.

fact.. Most of them are even scared of voicing out their opinions because they are scared that it will come back to hunt them..Imagine France, Uk, Germany, even USA couldn't condemn the police brutality and violence. This is just a delicate issue. if they support Catalonia independence that means tomorrow, one region Will rise up in their own countries and there is nothing they can do about it.. All of them are scared of karma coming back to hunt them tomorrow

LOL, Diplomacy dosent work when it comes to balkanising a nation, ask Sudan, Nigeria, India, Pakistan, Spain, Kurds, Cameroon etc.

What is the worst possible outcome?, War? You'll be fooling yourself if you think the nation has less to lose than the agitating region.

Can you claim once and for all, that Catalonia requesting independence is a recent thing, as they had never in their existence being an entity independent of Spain/Spaniards?
this is parr or his comment(the Catalan leader of Spain)

""""Puigdemont said in a televised address.
"My government in the next few days will send the results of today's vote to the Catalan parliament, where the sovereignty of our people lies, """"
from the BBC

The Catalan acted foolishly to put its own people in harms way.is it the court they will go to enforce the non binding referendum or the EU that does not recognise Catalan but Spain or it will take up arms and plunge Spain into war?

your contributions are not biased, we all know war is not the best option for any nation. but, the world today has evolved past the war era. politics and affiliation, insurgency and sanctions,these are the new war methods being fought. but, what do we know?, it will always not go the way we all wanted.
Re: CATALONIA HAS ‘WON RIGHT TO STATEHOOD ’ by Nobody: 8:54am On Oct 02, 2017
Rajoy is responsible for this mess in the first place. He agitated Catalans years ago and triggered off new endeavors for independence which had been ended after a special status had been granted to Catalonia.

Now he sent police to use violence to stop people from expressing themselves. Very undemocratic and extremely du.mb. He should have let them have their referendum and declare the referendum illegal, which it was according to the constitution. An illegal referendum is invalid anyway. After this move, Rajoy has even agitated these Catalans who initially were against seceding from Spain.

Spain has a lot of experience with such movements. The Basques tried to become independent for years with the ETA terrorizing the country and they have not succeeded. I doubt Catalonia has a chance but I am sure there is a better way to handle such situations than that of Rajoy. He made matters worse.

This referendum is a success my dear, if they can hold the referendum with such pressure how then can't they they have a sovereign state. the worst the Spanish government can do is to kill all Catalan, if you can't kill them all they be rest assure there is noting else the Spanish government can do

The Spanish government has don't their worst. They know the implications of such referendum that was why they send Spanish guard to quench such vote but all to no avail. There is noting they can do again, worst the Spanish government will just take it to the EU court which the Catalan I believed, they won't honour.
with what happened yesterday, you will agree with me that all the Catalans are ready to sacrifice their lives for their future.

No, they haven't. The card that they have not played yet is to take power from the local government in Barcelona and transfer it to Madrid.
The Basques (Northern Spain) and ETA have been fighting for independence for years and even used violence and terror to become independent but they failed.

so many country are fighting to leave EU, UK are no more in EU. the Catalans govt does not need EU to carry out its full control. the referendum is a success. If Spain overstep their boundary, believe me, the Catalan are ready for war. this is no more civil war cause all the people have spoken with one voice and they are ready to that for their freedom. the handwriting was bold yesterday.

Which countries are fighting to leave the EU?
The Brits had a referendum and left. There is no law stating that a country must remain in the EU if majority does not wish to be a EU member. There are laws, however, protecting the territorial integrity of national states. You are comparing apples to oranges.

You have problems with reading comprehension and logic.

The EU member states or any other states for that matter will not support any secessionist movements because it is against international law. You can leave the EU as a state if you have the majority but you can't leave the state. It is called territorial integrity. Two entirely different things.

UK leave. EU very funny!
EU is waiting for UK, Ireland is waiting for the UK to see if a check point will reappear again!
Catalan is not seceding!it is not a bragging issue!
Catalan will remain part of Spain and will abide by the Spanish constitution.
as of now how the illegal and non binding referendum will make part of Spain a country before Wednesday is what Catalans citizens are waiting for.and they will realise that the referendum was unnecessary.
Right now Catalan citizens are beginning to realise but it's political pro independent leaders are looking for every means to save their jobs having created a big problems for themselves.
my advise is for every Catalan to go about their life as citizens of Spain and ignore the temptation of being used by politicians of Catalan to bring further hardship.
why should Spanish citizen living in Catalan region suffer for the greed of a political Catalan leader
