Jordi Pujol was the president of the autonomous government of Catalonia 23 years. He represented (represents) the Catalonians who want an entente with Spain but maintaining their Catalonian identity. His coalition CiU has always defended self-government in spite of independence. But things have changed…
You can read (in French) his new opinions in this "Le Figaro" interview. For instance:
"Bridges are broken between Madrid and Catalonia"
"There is now a climate of anti Catalan hostility in Madrid"
"Spain has done so in most regions, but Catalonia has resisted."
"Specifically, 8.5% of GDP in Catalonia disappears in favor of other Spanish regions. This situation is not tolerable."
"We can agree, but on one condition: the attacks against Catalonia must stop."
Pujol is a dreamer: the attacks will no stop.
