Puigdemont reitera su candidatura a las elecciones catalanas

Carlos Puigdemont announced his intention to lead a party in the upcoming Catalonia regional elections while fighting extradition from Belgium. He plans to participate in the elections called by the Spanish government after Catalonia's unilateral declaration of independence. Puigdemont is forming a candidate list named Junts per Catalunya, which includes both party members and independents. Jordi Sánchez, a jailed leader of a secessionist movement, will also join this list. The Catalan European Democratic Party supports Puigdemont's proposal.
