Statement of the President of the Government of Catalonia Palau de la Generalitat, October 21st, 2017 All the proposals for dialogue addressed to Spain have had the same response: o silence, or repression. In my last letter to the Spanish president I reiterated the need to speak and reminded him that this is a clamor that is directed to us by many people, from many places. Today, the Spanish Council of Ministers has been in charge of giving a real slam to this clamor and this request and announces a series of measures and dismissals that directly represent the liquidation of our self- government and the democratic will of the Catalans. What the Catalans decided at the polls the Spanish government cancels at the offices. Thus, the Spanish Government, with the support of the Socialist Party and Citizens party, has undertaken the worst attack on the institutions and people of Catalonia since the decrees of the military dictator Francisco Franco abolishing the Generalitat of Catalonia.
