JxCat is asking the militancy to decide whether to continue supporting the Spanish Government

JxCat's president, Carles Puigdemont, has called a meeting in Perpignan, France, on Monday after the independence party yesterday raised its tone against Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and warned that the time had come to "start talking about the time of change."

JxCat's leadership is considering asking the militancy whether or notto maintain its support for Pedro Sánchez's government. 

JxCat's president, Carles Puigdemont , has called a meeting in Perpignan , France, on Monday after the independence party yesterday raised its tone against Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and warned that the time had come to "start talking about the time of change."

The party has reported that this meeting will take place "in accordance with the pre-established timetable", on Monday in the space Les 5 Elements, where the party has previously held events. 

On Monday, at 5 p.m., a press conference is scheduled to be held to read the current political situation, although the party has not clarified who will speak. 

Party sources have explained that the possibility of questioning militancy is one of those on top of the table and would be to confirm the final decision taken by the leadership. 

It's an option that's on the lips of the members' party leadership and internal body members, but it won't be until Monday's meeting when they decide whether to do it. 

It would not be the first time, because in November 2023, JxCat asked his party colleagues whether they supported the agreement that would make Pedro Sánchez President of the Spanish Government; and he did the same to decide whether the Generalitat chaired by Pere Aragonés should leave the Government. 

In recent weeks, the JxCat authorities have stressed that before the summer "things were going to happen" and were given a deadline until mid-December to make a decision with the Sánchez government, which they believe has "repeatedly" violated its parts of the agreement. 

Sanchez says he's doing it.

The President of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, has assured us that he is fulfilling the commitments made to Junts, at least those in his power, and has reiterated his readiness to meet Carles Puigdemont "where appropriate", as he has specified. 

Sanchez responded in this way after the ultimatum given by Junts. "Well, I haven't said it a thousand times! Why did we pass an amnesty law to normalize relations with political actors? Of course those meetings will take place. When, if necessary," said Sanchez, just at the end of the European Council meeting in Brussels.
