The Madrile El Pais daily, which opposes Catalonia's secession, has written today that it is being intended to use a “reces of Kosovo”, for the Catalans to be independent of Spain.
The aim of this strategy is to seize an international mediation for preparing a procedure like the Kosovo case. But this split is unilateral and violates human rights”, writes El Pais.
This newspaper even goes as far as it describes Kosovo's independence as unilateral.
But this daily does not forget to stress that there is no armed conflict in Catalon, as if there were in Kosovo.
“Propagandas advocate Catalonia's independence by comparing it to Kosovo, which came after ten years of armed conflicts, which also brought NATO intervention”, writes the Madrilene newspaper.
Since the secession referendum in Catalonia, there have been voices that have compared the case to Kosovo.
But the European Union has denied those statements, adding that Serbia was not part of the EU.
The legality of Kosovo's independence was also proved by the International Court of Justice, which stressed that such a thing was not in conflict with international justice.
