World 1 source 1 country 🔦 Under-reported 49m ago

During the final day of the General Policy Debate on Thursday in Barcelona, the Parliament of Catalonia approved a resolution demanding the transfer of security powers for the region's ports and airports within a three-month period. According to the regional parliament, this measure is intended to address a growing presence of international crime in the area.

In addition to the security demands, the Catalan chamber passed a resolution promoted by ERC calling for a broad political and civil agreement to resolve the political conflict between the Catalan government and the Spanish state.

During the same legislative session, the Parliament rejected a motion to reprimand Generalitat President Salvador Illa and demand a change in government direction. This proposal was defeated thanks to the combined votes of the PSC, ERC, and Comuns.
