Dear colleagues,<\/p>\n

We would like to draw your attention to the demonstration that took place yesterday in Barcelona, where 1.5-2 million people marched in support of the independence of Catalonia.<\/p>\n

1. Catalonia’s society is undergoing a process towards pro-independence views which has widespread popular support; it is an inclusive, democratic and pro-European movement.<\/p>\n

2. The slogan of the demonstration was ‘Catalonia, new state of Europe’ and EU flags were profusely waved.<\/p>\n

3. The Catalan independence process is certainly going to be complex, but now for many commentators in Catalan and international newspapers it also seems unstoppable.<\/p>\n

4. A vast majority of Catalans are persuaded that having their own state will allow them to face the current economic challenges (Catalonia has been contributing more than 8% of its GDP -around 16 billion euros annually- to the Spanish state for the last few decades);<\/p>\n

5. There seems to be no willingness in the Spanish government and its political class to understand Catalonia’s urge for a new and fair fiscal agreement to give Catalonia powers to collect all taxes. This would enable Catalonia to protect its welfare system and to have a fairer distribution of the burden of the economic crisis between Catalans and the rest of Spain.<\/p>\n

6. Many Catalans also believe that they would also be better represented politically in the EU with their own state; and that internally there would be more cohesion and they would be able to promote more effectively their language and culture.<\/p>\n

7. In case Catalonia needs to hold a referendum on independence, as it is clearly the will shown by its citizens yesterday, we would like to have your democratic support and understanding for this process.<\/p>\n

8. Catalonia is willing to be fully responsible and a committed partner in the EU. Catalans have the right to build a new socially fair, economically prosperous and environmentally sustainable state within the EU.<\/p>\n

If you need more information, don’t hesitate to contact us.<\/p>\n

Warm regards,<\/p>\n
