Letter from the CDR of Barcelona to the pro-independence parties: "Establish the Republic or we are lost"


19 March 2018 - 12:29

The CDRs of Barcelona have requested the following six specific points from the independence parties in their letter dated March 19:

- To put in place laws annulled by the Constitutional Court.

- Disobey Article 155.

- The restoration of the legitimate government of Catalonia.

- To carry out the declaration of independence: on the one hand, its publication in the Official Bulletin of the Generalitat de Catalunya; and, on the other, the implementation of the Law for Transitoriality and the Foundation of the Republic.

- Expansion of the Constituent Process, which will be built from the grassroots and reflect the diversity of the people.

- The approval of the CDRs as political subjects, with the capacity to carry out the Republic, as demonstrated when they guaranteed the holding of the referendum and managed to keep the people with the last two general strikes.

"If we don't try, we're lost"

The letter states that it is necessary to implement these measures, "as a people, if we try, we can lose; but if we do not try, we are lost. The Spanish state wants our country to be submissive and annular and will not stop until we achieve that." They say that after the "coup d'état" there is no doubt about it: political prisoners, the government in exile, the teachers prosecuted, the repression that is increasing against the CDR, the more than 700 mayors prosecuted and the structural precarization that the Catalan people are experiencing.
