catalonian government as well as the government in barcelona what's also very interesting to know that these people did not we are any flags they did not carry neither catalonia or the spanish flag they made clear this is not a nationalistic movement of any sort it is not a political movement of any sort is just an organized basically peaceful demonstration to press for dialogue and peace and how about in madrid we're also seeing thousands of people on the streets there what do spanish unionists want . now you see thousands they are in madrid who are carrying spanish flags obviously that's more nationalistic in that they make clear what spain is about space should be as it is should remain as it is to security and independence a political movement therefore an independence demonstration now that demonstration is a hearing from madrid is peaceful as well it remains peaceful so far the question is
