An unexpected change of course
The Spanish political scenario has experienced an amazing turn, with Pedro Sánchez and his party, the PSOE, at the center of the controversy over amnesty law. As Catalonia sails through turbulent waters, the figure of Carles Puigdemont has become a key negotiation element, although its role has generated tensions among the independence sectors.
David Madí’s perspective
David Madí, ex -consultant of President Mas, highlights a fundamental aspect in Catalan politics: the difficulty of understanding the language of power. Unlike Spain, which has shown a remarkable ability to remain stable, Catalonia has undergone a process that, according to Madí, has been a failure in terms of political and social organization.
The failure of the process
What seemed like a movement towards independence has deflated, revealing itself as a partisan system that was not ready to manage a conflict with the state. The Spanish response, with measures such as Article 155, has left Catalonia in a phase of political uncertainty that continues to this day.
Amnesty: a political tool
Amnesty’s recent law has been presented by processism as a victory. However, the reality is that the main beneficiary of this measure was Pedro Sánchez, who has managed to consolidate his power in a time of political division. Its strategy is based on understanding the game of power, unlike its pro -independence partners.
Puigdemont’s dilemma
Puigdemont, a leader who had expressed his distrust of Sánchez, is now in a delicate position. Its association with the PSOE, despite its reluctance, represents an attempt to reactivate its political influence. However, uncertainty about amnesty and its long -term impact persists.
The power of time
The PSOE has played astounding over time, knowing that amnesty the law will have to go through court before it has a real effect. This strategy offers the PSOE a margin of maneuver to avoid election advances, while processism is affected by the lack of urgency and decision.
Repercussions in Catalonia
The social reaction to Amnesty’s Law has been varied, with many citizens seeing it as an attempt at the PSOE to calm tensions. This perception has put into crisis the position of Together, which faces growing competition from other political forces, such as Catalan Alliance. The lack of unity between the independentists could lead to a reconfiguration of power in Catalonia.
An uncertain future
With the approaching elections and the dynamics of changing power, the Catalan political landscape remains in a state of flow. Moncloa has begun promoting moderate figures, such as Salvador Illa, to gain support in Catalonia, while Puigdemont and Junts struggle to regain their influence. The outcome of this situation is yet to be seen.
