Aragonés asked for a declaration of disclaimer
The president of the Generalitat, Pere Aragonès, requested from the government an institutional declaration of recovery and repair of the number of companies, claiming the responsibilities of the state for his murder. «The Government of Catalonia requests from the Government of the State an institutional declaration that restores the figure of the President of the Companies, that recognizes the injustice of his prosecution, that reveals the illegitimacy of the body that tried him, and which clearly declares the nullity of his sentence», Aragonès said. He recalled that, years ago, German institutions apologized for their cooperation in the arrest and surrender of the former president.
“Now is the time; the institutions of the Spanish State must also do it,” Aragonès emphasized, pointing out that this repair could also be the recognition of “a whole generation.”
