The truth about Catalonia - October 4th 2017

Like many Spanish and Catalans, I was deeply shocked and saddened by the events of last Sunday across all Catalonia , with clashes between police and citizens trying to exercise their voting rights , and with the scenes of violence, although, as an informed observer, it was hardly a surprise.

Of course the events had ample Press coverage across the world and the media had a meal with them. Since then I have heard many arguments and opinions, mostly well intentioned , but equally lacking a real and deep understanding of the issue. We all like simplification and we love a black and white story of oppressors and victims, but unfortunately the issue is much more complex, with many shades of grey and to fully comprehend it needs to be analyzed from different angles : historical, political, economical, legal and even emotional.

Whatever your stance on the issue , I believe you will gain a better view if you understand each of them. They are as follows :

History

Unlike other territories with independence’s claims ( aka Scotland ), Catalonia has never been an independent kingdom.

In the Middle- Ages , and as part of the “ Reconquista “ ,( our local crusade , after the Arab invasion and conquest of Spain in 711 ) we saw in Spain the built up of several Christian kingdoms : Navarra, Asturias, Leon, later on Castilla and Aragon. Over the centuries some of these kingdoms were absorbed by others and finally the two remaining ones united through the marriage of Isabel, queen of Castilla and Fernando , king of Aragon. Under their rule the last remaining Arab kingdom, Granada, was conquered and on the same year, 1492 , under Spanish crown mandate and under Spanish flag , Cristobal Colon discovered America. The Spanish nation was born.

Catalonia was a region of the Aragon kingdom that also comprised the actual Aragon, all Levante ( including Valencia ) and the Baleares islands.

It was therefore never an independent kingdom, although since the Renaissance become a very wealthy region, mostly due to maritime trade in the Mediterranean and developed their own language, Catalan, that co-existed with the Spanish and, as many other parts of the country , their own culture and traditions.

Today and since the advent of Democracy and the passing of the Constitutional law , voted in referendum by all Spanish citizens in 1978 ( affirmative votes 88% across Spain and 90% in Catalonia ) is an autonomous nationality (term used to recognize their specificity ), with ample levels of self-government.

Politics

The Constitution granted Catalonia their own government (“ Generalitat “ ), and their own parliament with the subsequent elections.

The same Catalan party has been in power in Catalonia since , with the sole exception of three years, and whilst initially positioned itself as ferociously autonomous, constantly negotiating with the central government ever increasing areas of power, but with apparent loyalty to the Constitution and to the rest of Spain, it has veered recently, since the crisis ( money always talks ) , into a radical pro independence agenda.

La Generalitat has full control over local police, public media ( all public television and radio channels ),public servcies ( excluding airports & Defense ), Health, Language policies, Education and many other aspects. It has power to levy taxes and it manages a portion of the national taxes ( ex, Income tax ) collected in the territory. This level of self-Government is substantially higher than any Estate in USA, any lander in Germany or any original kingdom in UK.

The Spanish Constitutional law has articles regulating it´s own change , that requires a qualified majority , as well as the scenario where a part of the country seeks independence , that requires a qualified majority and a vote in referendum by all Spanish citizens as “ the Spanish sovereignty belongs and seats with the whole Spanish people “. These articles are similar and where inspired by those existing in almost all Constitutional laws across Europe ( not the case in UK ).

The Spanish government has repeteadly invited the Catalan party to present their independency plans in the National Parliament for discussion . The Catalan party has refused as they do not have the needed votes to see it through.

Overall the Constitutional law has been a very positive factor on the last 40 years on securing and deepen Spain Democracy, estability and progress, and even if there are already talks about the need of adapting it to the new times ( I am in fact on this camp ) it has a very positive perception for a large majority of the population. However , in hindsight, it incurred in two fatal mistakes that have contributed greatly to the development of events in Catalonia.

First it sanctions an Electoral law that is not fully proportionally and that discriminate positively high concentration of votes on densely populated areas, what favors regional parties, and very specially the Catalan one. Whilst in general ( full country ) elections they collect around 2-3 % of votes, they get awarded with more than double this number in parliamentary seats. Those seats become a major negotiation lever in the often case where any of the major parties fail to achieve a full majority, and has been the origin of the endless negotiations and the constant concessions of the central government, allowed by the myopic stance of politicians only worried to keep or maintain their power and on the survival of today, without much consideration to the effects of this policy on the future.

Second big mistake was to grant full control on Education policies, as this has been used over 40 years by the Catalan party to fuel their independency agenda, rewrite history , and promote by all means at a minimum exclusion and in many cases hatred for anything Spanish. You might think I exaggerate,so let me give just two of thousands of examples. The civil war , a very sad episode of half of the country , backed by a legal government of extreme left , fighting the other half , backed by an army on rebellion, is taught in Catalonia’s public schools as basically a war between Catalonia and Spain. Second example: in Catalonia there are two official languages , Catalan and Spanish , that should co-exist on an spirit of equality. However in Catalan’s public schools out of the 30+ hours of lessons per week, only two are done in Spanish, and that is because the subject is Spanish language ( hard to teach this one in Catalan ). Some very courageous families ( you have to have a lot of courage to do that in Catalonia ) started legal proceedings against this policy and finally, after years of debate , the Constitutional Court ruled that Spanish should be taught in at least three hours per week. You heard well. Three out of +30 !. Hardly an oppressive rule, right. Well, la Generalitat , decided not to obey the rule , with so far no consequences at all.

Another language case, even if not related to Eduaction. In Catalonia you can have a business called “ Burger King “ ( English ) or “ Pizzeria Bella Roma “ ( Italian ) but do not dare to do the same with a Spanish name. If you do it and you do not replicate this name also in Catalan, with same measurements , you will be fine with a hefty fee. Of course the reverse is no problem at all. Only country in the world where you get a penalty for using an official language. Pure Democracy !.

As you can now start to understand the problem on Catalonia is not that of a Central oppressive power , but ,on the contrary , is that of a Estate so weak and in such a regression ,that is almost no visible in many parts.

In such and scenario is in fact a miracle that not all population is for independence. In last elections , pro-independence parties gain a narrow majority in the Catalan Parliament ( 72 seats out 135 ) due to the electoral law design, even though they only have the support of 45% of the population. Based on latest polls conducted by the Generalitat the independency has lost momentum in the months prior and it’s support was now at 41%. The rest of the population, almost 60% do not support or care much for independence.

Economy

At the heart of the issue is the desire of la Generalitat to have full control of all taxes in the territory, halting any type of solidarity with other less developed regions of Spain.

To promote this they actively launch a propaganda myth, amply broadcasted through their controlled media : “ Spain steals from us “.

The Central government ,under the argument that solidarity was not about territories but about people , decided initially not to publish the Fiscal Balances ( what each autonomous community contributes or takes from the total , after deducting taxes and investments on the territory ), what obviously fueled the controversy , but finally under the pressure they cave in and did publish them.

The outcome is that Catalonia, as a wealthy area, is a Net Contributor of around 9.000 million €, but Madrid ( with almost equal GDP ) contributes more than double with 19.000 million €. Not extremely fair, but a consequence of the constant negotiations to help and appease the Catalan party. So, if “ Spain steals from Catalonia “, it steals double from Madrid !. As you can see , this is not exactly an idealistic quest for Independence ( very romantic ), but on the contrary an approach full of unsolidairty and xenofobia.

The other economical myth is that, after Independence , Catalonia will be an economic paradise, in their own words “ The Denmark of the South “.

The truth is that an independent Catalonia will be hardly viable for the following reasons :1- Will be out of the EU and the €. Customs & duties everywhere. Repeteadly high EU authorities and head of states have made this very clear but independentists refuse to acknowledge this fact and believe that they will find an unknown door for a quick re-admission. 2-Around 60%+ of Catalan industrial production is sold intra Spain. Aside from the customs and duties mentioned above , how many Spanish will keep buying cava and other Catalan products ?. Take a guess. Serious studies project a decrease of Catalan GDP of 30-to 50% in the next10 years after Independence. Of course those studies have not made it into Catalan controlled media.3- On their quest to fuel independency agenda and to gain power in all areas , the Catalan party has over the years built a massive administration ( also riddle in corruption , but unfortunately this is also true on the local & regional admin in other parts of the country ) and seats now in a substantial public deficit. The Catalan bond has been rated as junk by all rating agencies and , therefore, la Generalitat do not have access to financial markets . This means that the central Spanish government is issuing bonds and devoting taxes ( my taxes ! ) to finance an administration that is in many cases working with the objective to dismantle this estate.Quite a paradox!.In fact if the Spanish government would decide to close the tap, la Generalitat will not be able to pay salaries of all civil servants, school teachers, nurses, doctors, even for the next month.

Legal

After the Spanish Constitution , the highest law in the country, the next most important one for Catalans is their own Estatuto, voted also in referendum in recent years.

The Estatuto also establishes a legal path for it’s change, that require as well a qualified majority.In clear opposition of the requirements set in both laws , the Catalan pro-Independence parties , using their narrow parliamentary majority, passed two weeks ago a law to call for Sunday’s independence referendum.

Even the proper legal services of the Catalan Parliament, adviced them that the law was illegal as it was in contradiction of both superior laws, but that did not deter them. Furthermore, they passed the law using an express procedure ( just approved with same votes one month prior, and also ruled illegal by the TC ) , that in fact meant that opposition parties could not even propose amendments to the law. All opposition MP leaved the Parliament at this stage, as a protest of the violation of their parlamentary rights.

This ilegal law states that ,to declare unilaterally the independence, the referendum did not require any participation quota ( say ,votes of 10% of the population or 5% or 15 % would suffice ) and also no qualified majority either . A 50.01 % of the votes, literally one vote more for Yes than No , would be sufficient to declare independence and break more than 500 years of common history.

As the law was declared ilegal ,by both the Constitutional Tribunal and the Supreme Court of Justice of Catalonia, and after the Catalan party refused again to accept the ruling of those courts, they ( the courts of Justice, not the Spanish government ) mandate the police to halt the referendum by all legal means and to vacate the self appointed electoral colleges.

As a consequence of these ruling at the courts the police started to dissemble all the infrastructure prepared for the referendum, including the informatics systems.

As a reaction to these actions, the Generalitat, against their own referendum law, changed the rules of the game just one hour ( 7.00 am on Sunday ) before the electoral colleges opened, allowing an “ Universal census “, that meant that in fact any voter could vote in any college, not only one the one they were enrolled to, by just presenting their identity papers.In fact same person could vote 10 times in 10 different colleges. Also,and not coincidentally , the ballot boxes chosen were opaque and arrive in the last minute to the colleges in the hands of independency agents. There have been recorded cases of the boxes arriving half pregnant , with plenty of votes inside.

Of course , no supervision or control of opposition at the electoral tables, as they refused to participate in the masquerade. This is the example of democracy, that , apparently, all Spanish people should accept and abide to.

With this level of guarantees and controls, the so called referendum carried on. The Generalitat declared on Sunday night that 2.2 Million people had voted and of those 90% were Yes votes to independence. Do you believe their numbers ?. Even if you do ( I commend you on this case for your faith on humanity ) this would represent 38%. of Yes versus total population with right to vote. With this 38% the Generalitat declared Sunday night that on following days they will proceed to declare independence unilaterally.

Emotional Aspects

Trough the works of the Catalan party and the blindness of successive Spanish governments , the Catalan society is now a divided one. A big part of it ( around 40% ) seeks independence, believes that “ Spain steals from them “ and thinks that an independent Catalonia will be an economical paradise and will solve all their problems . They are backed by a local government , lead by fanatics with ample tools at their disposal, including an almost monopoly of all media , and all the local administrative system. This is the Catalonia you saw in the streets last Sunday and the days after.There is one version of the truth and only one ( if you think of populism and Trump and Brexit comes to mind, think of this one as well ).

On the other side is a silent majority ,that has been kind of abandoned by a coward national government and only has one tool at their disposal: their secret vote. If they dare to express their feelings they will be labeled as traitors and treated as outcasts.

Not exactly an example of a healthy and democratic comunity . I personally have profound dislike and contempt for societies where only one truth is available. It brings me back memories of Germany on the early thirties.

On the rest of Spain, the feelings are of alarm,disbelief and indignation. Alarm for the escalation of events, disbelief because is hard to understand the parallel universe the pro-independence parties habe created and indignation both towards a weak and not responsive central government and a dilsloyal and greedy Catalan party.

Is because of that , that some ( many ) people in Spain approved on police intervention last Sunday.

I am not one of them. I believe the Spanish government , once again , fall into the pro-Independence game , that did not really believe on a fake referendum but were in fact trying to take the battle to the streets , hoping for scenes of violence , that will bring International support and increase local sympathies.

Unfortunately, they totally succeed on their tactics. As is often the case, when the weak decides to act, it does it with a heavy handed approach , that tends to back fire.

I do not condone the scenes of violence . I believe the ilegal referendum had to be stopped , but it could had happened by more intelligent means and not feeding the independents PR machine.

Having made that clear , let’s also get factual. If you ( still ) believe the figures of the Generalitat , more than 2 Million people voted and they were mobs and incidents all around Catalonia. However the number of seriously injured people, people that require hospital enrollment were two. Yes, you heard well, two people.

I believe that police in full anti- mob gear dispersing opposite crowds ( think of protests in summits like G- 5 or G-20 ) in any Western countries have produced a significant higher number of people injured.

Make no mistake. This is a Public Relation battle , totally on the agenda of pro-independence parties. The pacific citizens trying to vote were in many cases pro-independence activists that had only one objective that day: provoke the police to act violent for the whole world to see it. There have been plenty of cases recorded of fathers bringing their young kids to insult face to face the police to try to provoke them to hit the kids ( any sacrifice is worth it to build the Catalan nation ).

Also, manipulation is at large.I myself saw in one of major UK papers an horrific photo of a young kid bleeding through his head as part of the Sunday’s events. The only problem is that the photo is in fact a four year old one, belonging to an anti-crisis parade in Barcelona, dismantled by Catalan police. Similar photos of a miners parade in Madrid or even another one that really happened… in Turkey , have been broadly broadcasted. We tend to believe what we see, especially if is published in a major media .Regrettably in today’s world , nothing is for sure.

What next ?

This is the major political crisis Spain has had to face since the advent of democracy. Illegalities can not be condoned , but a pure and only legal approach will not solve the issue. A political solution involving dialogue and compromises is needed. This is easy to say,but… dialogue with whom ? and dialogue about what ?.

Dialogue with whom? To start now a dialogue with the actors that have brought us here is simply not possible for several reasons : 1- they have repeteadly demonstrated that they are not interested . They want to push their radical agenda , as they believe they can win. 2- to accept a dialogue will mean rewarding illegality and disloyalty 3- it will establish a precedent , that will be followed suit by other actors in other areas ( basques ).Spain, as we know it, will cease to exist.

For the dialogue to take place a change of the actors in scene is a must. This can be done if , after the declaración of independence has taken place, the Spanish government takes over the functions of the Generalitat for a limited period of time, around six months, with the upfront commitment to do it to prepare the ground for two events : new elections first in Catalonia and thereafter in total Spain.

Everyone , including pro-independence people will be able to vote and be represented. Everyone will know exactly what support they have. New actors will emerge, hopefully with a better disposition for dialogue, after the lessons learned.

This scenario is in fact also contemplated in the Constitution and therefore totally legal, requiring once again, a qualified majority on Parliament. Obviously, existing actors will have to bear all consequences, including legal , of their previous acts.

Dialogue about what ?. The issue here is what can you offer on the negotiation table when you have conceded already so much. The Catalan independent parties will seek full control of all taxes in their territory. This will not be possible as : 1- will break solidarity among Spanish, creating de facto citizens of 1st and 2nd rank 2- will be followed immediately by other contributing areas. Why not Madrid ?.3- will be immediately rejected by the poorer areas. Spain, as we know it will cease to exist.

In this hellish scenario the only possible solution, in my opinion, is for the new elected govern of Catalonia and the new elected govern of Spain to agree , this time with all guarantees and controls , for a new and legal referendum about the independence of Catalonia. Obviously this referendum will be voted by all Spanish, but equally so, the Catalan’s will be the critical votes. The Spanish government will have to actively engage in all previous arguments and in the battle of ideas to win the day.

This concludes my arguments in the topic. I apologise for the length , but as you can see is a complex issue with many facts unknown by non Spanish audiences. I hope I have helped to give you a better understanding. As you can see ,not quite a simple tale of victims and oppressors, and one where indeed some times the roles get reversed.

Best Regards

An indignant Spanish

Been depressed: Yes, clinically so. 11. Gotten drunk and thrown up: I don’t know?

Face masks must be worn walking along beach in Tenerife and Lanzarote and Ibiza pool parties banned

Brits visiting the Canary Islands, including Tenerife and Lanzarote, will now have to wear masks on the beach as the regional government reinforces coronavirus safety regulations.

Tourists are also being warned to wear them when around swimming pools as part of the new compulsory order which makes the wearing of face masks compulsory in all public places.

This comes as Mallorca and Ibiza’s government has slapped a ban on pool parties and party boats are also prohibited no matter where they are berthed in any part of the islands.

The Canaries had been one of the few places in Spain not to enforce the regulation but this changed yesterday when a new raft of rules was introduced to try and curb new outbreaks of coronavirus on the islands.

Brits visiting the Canary Islands, including Tenerife and Lanzarote, will now have to wear masks on the beach as the regional government reinforces coronavirus safety regulations

Masks have to be worn when accessing or walking along the beaches and the coasts but not if sitting still in one spot or when in the water.

The Balearic Government has been taking tough action to control nightlife and leisure activities following evidence of a strong link with coronavirus outbreaks.

There is also a new ban on the sale of alcohol in any form of transport linked to tourism.

The measures are part of a new package of restrictions that aim to avoid large crowds of people on board these boats or in premises that have a swimming pool.

The new rules apply to Mallorca and Ibiza, as well as Menorca and Formentera.

The archipelago added more than 100 coronavirus infections on Friday for the second consecutive day.

This is the highest number of positives since the peak of the epidemic curve was reached in the last week of March but the difference is that around 800 coronavirus tests are being carried out daily.

It is now mandatory for everyone over six years to wear a mask, on public roads, in outdoor spaces and in any closed place, or that is open to the public, regardless of the maintenance of the interpersonal safety distance of 1.5 meters.

In the hotel and catering establishments and services, including bars and cafeterias, masks have to be worn except when physically eating or drinking.

Pubs and restaurants have to abide by a new closing time of 1am with no new customers accepted after midnight and have to reduced capacity.

Nightclubs and cocktail bars have been closed and smoking is banned in public places where social distancing of two metres cannot be maintained.

Anyone caught breaching the rules stands to be fined between 25 euros and 600,000 euros depending on the seriousness of the situation.

Premises can be closed for up to three years and if any tourist venue is involved, the owner can be banned from renting it out for holidays, also for up to three years.

‘The owners of the establishments, spaces and premises must guarantee compliance,’ said a government spokesman.

All of Spain’s 17 regional governments agreed to enforce a ban on smoking outdoors in public places when a distance of two metres cannot be maintained.

The Canaries was one of the few places in Spain not to enforce the regulation but new rules have been introduced to try and curb new outbreaks of coronavirus on the islands

The Canary government is also warning that masks must be worn in the proper way.

They must cover the nose and mouth completely at all times and go under the chin to make sure no droplets are released into the air.

This comes as Health minister Blas Trujillo has issued an urgent plea to all 88 councils in the eight islands, which include Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura.

He said the Canaries had done very well to keep coronavirus cases and deaths low during the first wave of the pandemic from March to June but now had to contain new outbreaks.

The Canary Islands currenty have 28 active coronavirus outbreaks affecting 268 people, 16 of them in Gran Canaria, eight in Tenerife and four in Lanzarote, as reported by the Ministry of Health.

The outbreak with the most positive cases, with a total of 60, is in Gran Canaria and relates to nightlife.

The Canary Islands currenty have 28 active coronavirus outbreaks affecting 268 people as the government tightens regulations on wearing masks

Of the 28 outbreaks, five correspond to 41 migrants who arrived in different boats in recent weeks.

The Canary Islands Government services have traced the close contacts of the 268 people included in these outbreaks, thus reaching another 745 people.

Other new rules include a ban on contact sports for the next 15 days when the decision will be re-evaluated.

Sports competitions that were scheduled to start on September 1st will be delayed, in principle, until October 1st.

On mainland Spain, Marbella is to close all of its beaches between 9.30pm every night and 7am the next morning as Spain steps up safety restrictions to try and halt the spread of coronavirus.

The decision was announced today by the local council and comes into force on Tuesday. The authority says the new timescale will continue ‘indefinitely’.

Marbella is to close all of its beaches between 9.30pm every night and 7am the next morning as Spain steps up safety restrictions to try and halt the spread of coronavirus

With scorching heat in Spain and space restrictions on beaches, thousands of people are already sunbathing as early as 6am and are still out as the sun goes down because of the warm temperatures.

But Marbella council says it has to restrict the hours because of the constant outbreaks of coronavirus across the Costal del Sol and its holiday resorts.

Speaking on behalf of Ángeles Muñoz, Marbella’s mayor, municipal spokesman, Félix Romero said of the additional measure: ‘Our goal is to prevent social gatherings, such as parties and barbecues, which could pose a risk to public health and a focus on possible outbreaks.’

The local police have been asked to step up patrols and will be responsible for making sure the new times are adhered to.

Sunbathers will be given an extra half an hour to tidy up and go home by 10pm.

The council says it understands people love going to the beach but it cannot risk parties and big gatherings which used to be the norm before the pandemic.

Bautista Agut forced to cancel own stag do after booking Wimbledon semi-final against Djokovic

By By Matthew Lambert For Mailonline

I had planned to be in Ibiza now & # 39 ;: Roberto Bautista Agut forced to cancel his deer after booking the half final of Wimbledon against Novak Djokovic

Published: 20:03 BST, July 10, 2019 | If you hadn't expected Roberto Bautista Agut to reach the semi-final of Wimbledon then you are not the only one.

& # 39; I intended to be on Ibiza now & # 39 ;, he said after grinding the Argentinian Guido Pella in four sets. & # 39; We had already organized everything. My friends, six of them, are all there.

& # 39; Well, it feels better to be here in London, I think they will board on Friday. & # 39;

Instead of frolicking in the Balearic Islands, 31-year-old Spaniard Novak Djokovic will be shown at Center Court on Friday in the first Grand Slam semi-final of his career,

Seed No. 23 may not yet be recognized, but it will not be underestimated , least by Djokovic Bautista Agut played the world number two this year and beat him both times.

All in all, Djokovic heads it up from head to head with 7-3, but that doesn't prevent his opponent from playing big receives courage from recent victories in Doha and Miami

& # 39; I had the chance to play very good games against him, & he said when the laughter had died after his revelations in Ibiza. I like to play a lot of rally & # 39; s. Well, I like to play against an opponent like this. & # 39;

From a parochial point of view, Bautista Agut is best known as the last man to endure Andy Murray on a single court, setter in the Australian Open in January

] Although Bautista Agut is a clear underdog against Djokovic, he has a great form. His flat front, hit with an unusual old-school grip, matches the low-lying grass fields and the player in the draw has hit more than his 88 winners on that side.

The run of the Spaniard here is an example of what can be achieved with dedication and a flint-hard temperament. He is in excellent physical condition and his footwork is as sharp as you would expect as he has played football for the Villarreal youth teams up to the age of 14.

If he can't be the first man Murray, Djokovic, Nadal or Federer to win Wimbledon since 2002.

In Catalonia′s Val d′Aran, nobody wants independence | Europe| News and current affairs from around the continent | DW

“Freedom for all political prisoners! Freedom for all political prisoners!”

On September 11, Catalonia’s national day, approximately 1 million angry pro-independence demonstrators took to Avinguda Diagonal, Barcelona’s central avenue, waving red-and-yellow flags and shouting. Some were singing songs, while others had brought horns and whistles.

Nearly a year after the 2017 Catalan independence referendum on October 1, many were still dreaming of full regional autonomy.

But some 200 kilometers (120 miles) north of Catalan capital as the crow flies in Val d’Aran, on the border with France, September 11 was a day like any other.

Catalonia’s non-Catalans

“We have nothing to do with all that hubbub,” said Juan Amiell, a valley local, a few weeks after Barcelona’s national day rally. Leaning on his cane, he grinned and added: “We’re not Catalans.”

Some 10,000 people live in Val d’Aran, surrounded by the verdant Pyrenees Mountains. The region’s largest village is Viella with its 5,000 inhabitants; the smallest is Bausen, with a population of just 40. This is where Amiell lives, up a 4-kilometer (2.5-mile) serpentine mountain road a stone’s throw from the French border.

“We are Aranese people,” Amiell explained. The 88-year-old has lived all his life in the mountain village. In the exact same house, in fact. He can see the entire valley from his kitchen window, and knows it like the back of his hand.

Here, he said, most people speak the Aranese language, which has little in common with Catalan. Although Aranese is one of Catalonia’s official languages, it’s only spoken in Val d’Aran. It’s related to Occitan, a language spoken in southern France.

Val d’Aran, which shares its northern border with France, was largely isolated from Spain until 1948. Amiell recalled that most people would spend their entire lives in the valley. “Occasionally we would travel, but the only streets out of the valley led to Toulouse,” in France.

“The Aranese language is the most important element of our local identity,” said the mayor of Viella, Juan Antonio Serrano. “And because we were cut off from the rest of Catalonia for such a long time, we do not feel very connected to them.” His position on last year’s Catalan independence referendum is clear: “If Catalonia decides to split off from Spain, we’ll decide to split off from Catalonia.”

Right to self-determination

A law passed in 2015 allows the region to vote on whether it wants to leave Catalonia and become part of Spain. With Catalonia’s independence referendum looming last October 1, plans were drawn up in Val d’Aran for such a vote. “But the referendum was never held,” Serrano said.

‘If Catalonia decides to split off from Spain, we’ll decide to split off from Catalonia’: Serrano

Leaving Spain would destroy the economy in the region, which is known throughout Europe for the Baqueira-Beret ski resort. It’s Spain’s largest, and said to be a favorite of the Spanish royal family. During the winter, about 60,000 vacationers glide down the resort’s 153 kilometers of trails every hour; the streets of the surrounding towns and villages are lined with hotels and restaurants.

“Our economy largely depends on tourism and gastronomy,” Serrano explained. “The income generated in winter gets us though the whole year.” If Catalonia — and with it the Val d’Aran — were to split off from Spain, and possibly leave the European Union, that could seriously harm the tourist trade. Serrano doesn’t even want to think about what that could mean for his region.

In the warmer months, Juan Estevez works as a farmer. But in winter, the 64-year-old, like many others, earns extra money as a ski instructor. He is well aware of the economic consequences of Catalan independence. But for him, what matters most is his local identity.

“This is not Catalonia, this is the Val d’Aran,” he said — even though there are few Aranese flags on display, never mind Catalan flags. Only at the town hall in Viella does the Aranese flag fly, side-by-side, with the banners of Spain and Catalonia. “Without switching on the TV, we would hardly even be aware of what is going on in Barcelona,” joked Estevez.
