Analysis of the Catalan political landscape
The current political situation in Catalonia is presented as a reflection of the instability of two of its most emblematic leaders: Carles Puigdemont and Oriol Junqueras. Both figures, who have been at the forefront of the independence movement, now see how their influence is diluted, according to the last CEO barometer.
Assessments and approvals in fall
The survey reveals that Puigdemont and Junqueras have not only lost support among voters, but also their personal assessment has collapsed. According to the data, the President of Junts obtains a 3.4 note with a approval of 34%, while the ERC leader is slightly above with a 4.6 and 54% approval.
A change in political dynamics
Puigdemont’s rise and fall, which was seen as a symbol of hope for independence, is now marked by his recent alliance with the PSOE. His transition from charismatic leader to governing partner has led to frustration among his followers, who perceive betrayal of the initial ideals.
The consequences of political management
Puigdemont’s wear and tear is amplified by his controversial management of the Council of the Republic and the scandals that tarnish him. Its authority is questioned, and its competition in the face of emerging figures like Sílvia Orriols is leaving it in an increasingly vulnerable position.
Junqueras at a critical time
On the other hand, Oriol Junqueras, who in the past enjoyed a good reputation, is also in a delicate position. Despite being the best -rated leader of his party, his popularity has diminished, and his decisions have caused controversy within ERC, with some members questioning his strategy.
An uncertain future for independence
With the elections near the horizon, the uncertainty about the future of both leaders becomes apparent. Its ability to regain the support of voters and restore confidence in their leadership is presented as a monumental challenge. The current situation not only reflects the fragility of his political projects, but also calls into question the viability of the independence movement in its entirety.
With the constantly evolving political landscape, it is vital that both Puigdemont and Junqueras find a way to reconnect with their foundations and meet the challenges that await them. Catalan independence, as a whole, will have to rethink its strategies if it wants to remain a significant force in the future.
