Benoît Hamon sees freedoms at risk in Poland and Spain, ahead of prison visit
CATALONIA
' "This Monday, April 1st, Benoît Hamon will speak out about the
undermining of another freedom in Europe: that of political freedoms,
illustrated today by the use of a judicial route to solve the political
conflict between the Catalan independentists and the Spanish
government," says the party's statement.
"While Génération.s
maintains a position remote from any political interference, it
considers that in terms of political freedom or the exercise of
democracy, no political solution is to
be hoped for when people are being imprisoned for their political
opinions. Instead, it is dialogue and negotiation that must prevail and
guide the approach of any democratic society. The European Union has a
duty to assist the two parties to find a lasting solution that respects
the different interests," it adds.'
