The president of Cs considers that the ruling of the ECHR has given a 'resounding slap' to the Govern to demonstrate that 'they gave a blow to democracy'

"Have the same hurry to solve the dependence that the one that has had to return to hang in the Palau de la Generalitat the banner that attacks our country with its lie". This is how the president of the Citizens' Parliamentary Group (Cs), Carlos Carrizosa, addressed the President of the Generalitat, Quim Torra, who has criticized his inaction to "improve" the dependence on Catalonia, taking into account that it is the community autonomous with more unattended dependents throughout Spain. "One in three does not receive any kind of help," explained Carrizosa, which is "46% more than the Spanish average."

The president of Cs has referred to the banner that Torra resigned once the elections were held and which refers to the politicians who are in prison for having "struck a blow to democracy." In this regard, he warned that "the neutrality of institutions must be met every day" and has warned Torra: "Until you understand that you must respect the law and democracy, you must respond to justice."

Carrizosa has also referred to the ruling of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) that unanimously rejects the claim filed by the former president of the Generalitat, Carles Puigdemont, and 74 other deputies against the decision of the Constitutional Court (TC) to annul the plenary session of October 9, 2017, in which he intended to declare the independence of Catalonia. It considers that the sentence is a "resounding slap" to the Govern because it shows that "they gave a blow to democracy".
