Carles Puigdemont may return to Spain
162
Carles Puigdemont may return to Spain. The supreme court in Madrid says this. He was in exile for 9 years. Exile means: A person leaves the home country out of fear of punishment. Puigdemont wanted Catalonia to become an independent country in 2017. This was against the law in Spain. Therefore, the police searched for him.
There is a new law in Spain. It is an amnesty-law. This means: Certain acts are no longer punished. The constitutional court decides this now. The law applies to Carles Puigdemont too. The accusation of misuse of money is forgiven too. Judges argued about this before.
There are new elections in Spain soon. They take place on 29 November. The return of Puigdemont is important for politics. Prime minister Pedro Sánchez needs the help of separatists. Separatists are people who want an own state. At the same time, there is trouble about expensive flats in Spain. People are angry and go to the street.
