- On Monday, the court upheld lifting national arrest warrants for Puigdemont, Lluís Puig and Toni Comín after rejecting Vox’s appeal.
- Earlier this month, the Constitutional Court overturned the interpretation excluding Puigdemont and colleagues from the 2024 amnesty over alleged financial crimes.
- Puigdemont has lived in Belgium since fleeing; his only known stay in Spain, in 2024, prompted a police manhunt.
- It remains unknown when Puigdemont will return; Comín plans to travel to Madrid this week for administrative MEP procedures.
My role was to stir public opinion, internationalise the conflict and work from the heart of Europe to explain the reality of Spain— Puigdemont; in a video posted on social media as the ruling was announced
