Junts has broken away from the bloc led by the PSOE and which includes ERC, Bildu, Sumar and the BNG and has presented its own partial amendment to the amnesty law to also decriminalize terrorism crimes with a final sentence and tie Carles' shield Puigdemont so that he cannot be arrested if he returns to Spain. The text of the neoconvergents also contemplates advancing the application of the amnesty law by two months - until November 1, 2011 - to thus reinforce the origin of the Catalan process and "include all actions classified as a crime or determinants of administrative responsibility or contractual" linked to the 2014 consultation and the illegal self-determination referendum of October 1, 2017.
The independentistas are keeping an eye on the Executive and are withdrawing from the agreement on the amendments to the amnesty law, after many hours of conversations with the PSOE and ERC, and have chosen to present their objections to the text alone. Moncloa had already warned that, after how difficult it was to agree on the wording of the general pardon for the prisoners of the process, he was not going to accept anything beyond technical tweaks. In another of the sections they seek to reform, they include crimes committed by police 'lawfare'.
The negotiation on the amnesty was considered closed. Even so, the attempt by Junts and ERC to further shield the law and force judges to apply it in a broad way, to the maximum number of those affected, led the socialists to open a new round of contacts to explore whether it was feasible. introduce some nuance. The dialogue lasted until this afternoon but in the end a pact between the PSOE and the two pro-independence parties was not possible and Junts has presented its own amendments. The socialists have also done it but together with Sumar, ERC, Bildu and BNG.
