FRANCE 24 English published this video item, entitled “Sanchez’s gamble: Spanish divided over pardons for Catalonia separatists” – below is their description.
Bold step or Betrayal? #Spain’s Socialist prime minister went to #Barcelona Monday to announce the conditional #pardon of nine prominent #Catalan #separatists, jailed for organizing a banned 2017 #independence #referendum. With two years left in his mandate, #PedroSanchez says he sees an opportunity, with the promise of dialogue to follow. He’s ready to brave public opinion: a recent survey has more than six in ten Spaniards against clemency.
