MADRID - Spain’s electoral board on Friday ordered the pro-independence president of Catalonia’s government be stripped of his regional lawmaker role, in a move that may complicate efforts to end a prolonged national political deadlock.
On Saturday parliament holds a vote in which Socialist leader Pedro Sanchez is relying on the abstention of Catalan separatists Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya — a political ally of Torra — to confirm him as Prime Minister. A parliamentary source also said the board has decided to block ERC’s jailed leader Oriol Junqueras from taking up his position as a member of the European Parliament.
Speaking outside the seat of the Catalan government in Barcelona, Torra condemned the board’s decision and described the rulings against himself and Junqueras as an “extremely serious attack.”
