that unprecedented part of the spanish constitution which until now had never been used before in almost forty years which essentially history cattle and all that sort ptolemy it's dissolved the parliament it's removed the president from office and it's also removed some of the top police officers in the local police force in that catalonia and many people in the street. boston is telling me that they are unhappy with me to take a listen to what they were saying. they are guarding our liberty or freedom we are just so angry we feel like a country it would feel like we're representing our our government we need to be free is what our population wants i think. people you specifically. we have it clear that we had a nation and. we will go when people is trying just to explain their opinion and someone is trying to punish bad
3:04 pm
and trying to use the violence to stop that. is of both human being i feel kind of scared because there are also people here in barcelona and elsewhere in catalonia who support those actions of the trade however one of those is certainly not i now as we can describe the president of gotten in your car this push you want he made a brief statement earlier today crying that action from which we take a listen to what he said. bendish ministers agreed to depose the catalan government intervene in our self rule and dissolve the parliament these are decisions that contradict the will of the citizens of our country expressed at the ballot box in a democratic society it is the parliamentarians that elect or deposed a president well the reality is that nobody knows exactly what the future and now holds immediately before to catalonia the true independence members of parliament
3:05 pm
want to push through with creating a republic understand that they are trying to draw us a document which they will release in the next forty eight hours of which they will describe how they will look to secede from spain in the meantime madrid says is taking full control of catalonia and it intends for it to stay that way it's also declared that they will be elections held on december twenty. this year we have new into cation yet with the truly independence and peace and get along well actually support all decide to not take part in those elections but for the moment it's very murky the reality is it is not yet clear what the future of east catalonia will remain to spain whether it will become an independent republic. the chief economist at travis investment daniel occult thinks that economic difficulties will limit the region's ability to resist madrid there's very little that they can do permanently because by now i think we have seen that there's more than fifty countries all of
3:06 pm
the european union to recognize this call for independence the point that he might be trying to get to is is not a good one for the catalan economy which is already suffering which is basically two to block or to generate further economic problems in a region that has already seen more than one thousand seven hundred companies move their headquarters out of out of the region the problem right now is that there is no no room for negotiation because it's either secession or nothing and that makes it very very complicated. the spanish government got a whelming support from european institutions with the un and nato joining them the same with other countries most e.u. states as well as the us australia and several american states called for spanish unity some stress that they would never recognize an independent catalonia compared to that the list of those taking has only a side looks pretty short if you have

3:08 pm
the european union has brought this to a head and it's not just speed. problems with the basques e.u. the front of the the floodwalls in belgium in various parts of europe there are problems people want to secede because people don't want to be ruled by faceless bureaucracy in brussels they want to make their own decisions locally and then have a national government as well cattle loon years of the richest well the richer parts of spain so they are that's why they're feeling very upset. you know what's not international be keeping a close eye on those developments throughout spain during the day and night we'll bring them to you soon as we get. i. was united states now where a senior senator is the morning that twitter discloses account details relating to
