Having presented these thoughts, the text approved by Parliament establishes:







  1. Where can we read the articles that are talked about on the first point?

    El text de la resolució afirma:

    "El Parlament de Catalunya, en el marc de la celebració del 50è aniversari de la Declaració Universal dels Drets Humans, ratifica un cop més el dret del poble català a determinar lliurement el seu futur com a poble, en pau, democràcia i solidaritat."

    And the resolution affirms that:
    'The Parliament of Catalonia, while celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, confirms once again the right of the Catalan people to freely determine its future as a people, in peace, democracy, and solidarity.'

    That site reports that the resolution received 75 votes in favor (from CiU, ERC, PI, and EUiA), 39 abstentions (PSC) and 15 votes against (PP).

    I'll keep looking to see if I can find a link to the actual files.

  3. Thank you. I can read Catalan, so if you find the original put it here so that I can read ;)

  4. Thanks. Since you are catalan, can you help me to find the speech of Jose Montilla yesterday in the dinner with the President of Portugal?
