Carles Puigdemont has evaded arrest after making a speech in Barcelona to a large crowd. Spanish authorities put out an arrest warrant for the fugitive former Catalan separatist leader in 2017 after he attempted to organise an independence referendum.

He was seen walking the streets of Barcelona before his speech on Thursday. Puigdemont said: 'Today many thought they'd be celebrating my arrest, and thought that this punishment would dissuade us, and you.' He added: 'Well, they are wrong.'

A spokesperson for the Catalan police said one officer had been arrested in connection with Puigdemont’s escape

I'd hardly call that walking "openly" in the streets. Less than 1, 000 in the crowd? And he is a criminal on the run, yeah?

No hate, but I honestly don't get why Catalonia wants to be independend just to come back to the EU as a single country. I mean, independence within Europe is such an outdated concept, because regions play a great role in the EU architecture. On a regional level you can be as independent as you like, you can speak your languages, collect your own taxes, etc. Also, Spain is one of the most modern, open and successful countries within Europe, why leave such a place? Just to raise a different flag?

El nacionalismo no está permitido en Occidente... va en contra de los valores capitalistas neoliberales.
Se detendrá a aquellos que quieran homogeneidad, tradiciones y costumbres familiares.
Es un "pensamiento erróneo" y un crimen de pensamiento creer en el nacionalismo.
El capitalismo, centrado en Estados Unidos, no puede crecer exponencialmente si los Estados-nación tienen una identidad individual fuerte.
