MADRID - Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, who faces a national election in two weeks’ time, has said he will act with “strength and proportion” against any attempt by Catalan separatists to repeat their 2017 independence bid.
“If we see the laws of the constitution or the Statute of Autonomy in Catalonia broken once more, the state of law led by this government will act with strength and proportion against any challenge,” Sanchez said in an interview published in Hoy newspaper. While the conflict has eased since the height of the secession crisis, Catalonia’s demand for an independence referendum that Madrid has against ruled out has vexed further attempts at a resolution.
