| Catalonia Independence: Spain To Take Control Of Catalan Institutions by olamefun1990(m): 7:14am On Oct 31, 2017 |
On Friday, Madrid stripped Catalonia of its autonomy and removed Catalan leader Carles Puigdemont from office. The temporary move will see as many as 150 of the region's ministers replaced. Some have vowed to continue to work. Mr Puigdemont and other Catalan officials may face criminal charges, a move likely to lead to huge protests. What happens next? Spain's central government is set to take control of Catalan institutions with Spanish officials expected to be put in place in the region's ministries on Monday. Madrid has called for the Spanish constitutional court to revoke Catalonia's unilateral vote for independence. Mr Puigdemont and his vice-president Oriol Junqueras say they do not accept the moves by Madrid, adding that they can only be removed from office by the citizens of Catalonia. If Mr Puigdemont and others refuse to step aside, they face possible arrest and prosecution on charges of rebellion - the maximum sentence for which is 30 years

Hope biafrans are taking notes. I doubt Nigeria will be nice enough to announce the take over of biafran establishments before seizing them, if they ever make the mistake of unilaterally declaring independence again. Last time it was a massacre. |
