Carles Puigdemont seeks deal in exchange for support for either of Spain’s two main political forces as they compete to form a government
“We are prepared for [repeat] elections,” Mr Puigdemont told a press conference in Brussels. “But we are also prepared for a negotiation that could lead to a historic pact.”
Mr Puigdemont is one of several Catalan politicians who have been living abroad and who might benefit from an amnesty. Spain’s supreme court has been trying to extradite him since he left the country, and it wants to try him for misuse of public funds and disobedience for his role in the independence drive of six years ago.
He also insisted that JxCat ultimately aims to negotiate a legally binding referendum on Catalan independence with the Spanish authorities.
