4. Formal Letter to President Rajoy

Castelló d'Empúries, 10/05/2014 Dear M. President Rajoy: The reason why I write you this letter is to express my disagreement concerning your attitude in the Independence process of Catalonia. I understand that you, representing the Spanish Nation and defending the ideas and convictions of the Conservative Party, are against separations and divisions within this nation. But you cannot ignore that the main part of Catalonia want to be independent, want to be an own nation, as they already were 300 years ago. We are living in democracy and not in dictatorships as years before under Franco. This is one of the advances of our 21th century, the voice of the people is as important as their leaders. The attempt to make them cease is the beginning of the end. The recent examples of Ukraine shows that you cannot ignore them. If the main part of the people of a country or a region feels strong enough to be independent because there are totally in nonconformity with the rest of the country due to their identity, their traditions, their language and behaviours, nobody, not even you M. President can avoid that changes will be coming. Naturally you can go on with your attempts of intimidation, of strong rules and ignorance but in the end, this process will be ruled by a peaceful process of democracy. Nobody can be forced to be part of something which is totally against his convictions. And Catalan People have said: Enough! Honestly, I hope and wish that you start to understand the reasons of the Independence process of Catalonia and instead of ignoring it, you should participate in finding an acceptable solution for everybody. The Human Rights of the United Nations give us the right to defend our convictions. Thanks in advance for your attention, yours sincerely Xantal Solé Junker
