Spanish Prime Minister Wants Catalan Pardons To Open "New Era"

"With this act, we want to open a new era of dialogue and reconciliation, and end once and for all the division and confrontation," Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said.

In pardoning nine Catalan separatists over the failed 2017 independence bid, Spain wants to end division and open a new chapter with the pro-independence government of Catalonia, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said Tuesday. "With this act, we want to open a new era of dialogue and reconciliation, and end once and for all the division and confrontation," he said.
