Salvador Illa will meet Puigdemont tomorrow in Brussels
The President of the Generalitat, Salvador Illa, has said that "it is time" to show that "the engine, in democracy, is dialogue".
The President of the Generalitat, Salvador Illa, will meet this Tuesday with former President Carles Puigdemont at the headquarters of the Catalan Government Delegation in Brussels.
The Government of the Generalitat announced the meeting on Monday in a statement, which will take place at 4.30 p.m.
The meeting will be the first to take place after Illa's appointment as President and will be held behind closed doors.
The President of the Generalitat, Salvador Illa, has stated that " it is time to send a message "at tomorrow's\u00A0meeting in Brussels with the leader of JxCat, Carles Puigdemont.
He said so in an interview at TV3 and Catalunya Ràdio on the occasion of the start of the political course.
After meeting last year with Jordi Pujol, José Montilla, Artur Mas, Quim Torra and Pere Aragonés, Puigdemont is the only former president who has not met with the President of the Generalitat, Illa.
"It is time to do so. It is a constitutional amnesty. I would like this meeting to take place here, in the Sala de la Virgen de Montserrat, in the Palau de la Generalitat, and to have taken place several months ago. We will do so now and so," Illa said.
