Yes to independence that was the news from consular News Parliament it was the moment the separatists have been waiting for and they took to the streets of boston and are in their thousands to celebrate. The earth. Gets an enormous satisfaction because weve achieved what we thought for. The independent state of catalonia. I never thought it could happen here so thanks for these brave people. The and they were singing inside parliament as well the Unofficial National anthem the catalonians opposition had already quit the chamber refusing to take potshots at the remaining lawmakers voted by seventy to ten in favor of independence to the citizens of catalonia its up to all of us to maintain the pulse of our country our country to maintain our peace and dignity as we have always done and always will the. Nature of the spanish cabinet discussed taking over the government of catalonia its parliament is to be dissolved new elections held in december and its leader could face rebellion charges punishable with up to thirty years in jail. We never wanted it to come this far and we dont believe it would be good to extend this exceptional status as weve always said this is not about suspending catalonians autonomy but about a return to the law and to reason. In the council on capital pass the loan or the Independence Celebrations a continuing spains west political crisis in four decades shows no signs of easing. Continue in spain and we have Team Coverage of these developments in barcelona. Was on the ground for us and covering madrid is robert show us start with the new were a couple hours away now from that euphoric independence declaration inside the parliament what is the mood right now in barcelona. Things started to calm down a little bit now sorry for our independence declaration was made there with thousands of people on the streets here behind me celebrating it really jeevan me the any way i can describe it shes like a con of spirits people were overwhelmed at the decision that had been taken here that been a lot of backwards and forwards it was not clear really into the mind that happen that we were going to get this independent secularization and then to say it is people who realise that which is out on the streets outside the Parliament Things as i said are calming down a little bit now there had been some threats of violence breaking out we heard a short while ago that i was in and see independence protests not too far away there was some reports in local media that they were going to head all way that doesnt look like its going to happen police seem to the vest and the d. C. But were not quite out who is yet though every now and then behind me i can his sort of outbreak of. Cheering from people its you do you get the sense that this. Labor into something a bit more threatening is the night goes on right martin spain is unprecedented situation how is rejoiced in practical terms planning to implement direct rule now in catalonia. Well indeed its unprecedented that was his majority adopted its constitution one hundred seventy which itself wasnt a more. Civil war dictatorship so thats just an indication of how seriously the governments image of lawmakers here are taking the crisis in practical terms well weve already been doing the spadework how many weeks now by transferring many thousands of additional civil guards and police to work alongside where. They are organizing. So much sense i. Take control of the order has what has changed the installations. And the other thing that theyve done Strategic Thinking is that they took control of peacefully by the way our navy yard has a longer history as a few weeks ago so far controlling the Security Forces are controlling the money theyve. Laid the foundations for this takeover so. That should make it much much easier all right in theory charlotte lets go back to you for a second what do people there in catalonia actually think is going to happen because they have almost no International Support for independence how can they really become an independent country is that something people really think is on the cards for them. Thats certainly the hope among people who have been out on the streets here behind me today they believe that there is a man days now for this Independence Day as they said the mandate came in the referendum this that took place and now today there was a date in parliaments they say this really should go ahead just to give you sense of how people are feeling here a short time ago there was an announcer behind me and she said huge cheers from the crowd that the cool air catalan Radio Station had said well i want to add that it was going to cross to its correspondents abroad it was referring them as well. Correspondent in madrid say people do really want to see the president s independence was really want to see this fall three it has to be mentioned they very clearly that these people who have been here tonight behind me they represent everybody in catalonia in fact they are quoting the polls represent half of the people who are here there are a lot of people who are against independence who always have been and theyre going to be very concerned that the developments that weve seen it today all right martin back to you in madrid are we witnessing the unraveling of spain in its current form is there any way to go back now to the status quo well i think of all of the reasons you have to look at go. Down house to learn more houses that consider in your words yes independence that obviously. Country independence feelings are wrong separatist very hard even decades will follow and then possibly go in the well. Were going next im out so. Well i think hes more likely to have one indeed you know one should emissions already been settled and looking into ways to amend their constitutions we may be seeing to change in the weinsteins regions we may be seeing. A federal constitution such as germany house the current chaotic situation in which weve got Something Different regions and each one has its own individual star. But couldnt date the one that has to sit down so a way out of this can be constitutional reform even in the run up to this crisis current constitution was written and it could be amended but could be a possible one. I shall come back to you for one more question what happens now weve seen catalonia act weve seen madrid react seems like the balls in calendars court. This is the Crucial Point in the fact is the people who are on the streets behind me really dont know we spoke to some people who were here and they said that they wanted to celebrate tonight because anything could happen tomorrow was fear is that when spain does start to impose a race rule when you have police here on the streets trying to take charge of government buildings that people here are going to take that very badly any threat to his autonomy is not something thats going to go down well so there are some real risks of violence are an uncertain situation Charlotte Chelsea still joining us from barcelona and Martin Roberts in madrid thanks to both of you earlier spoke with our correspondent in brussels i asked him about the vibe coming from the European Union on the catalonia issue. They you is fully supporting the Spanish Government and every move it makes that is clear of the us says this problem this forward to tween us alone in madrid has to be resolved within the Legal Framework the constitution of the frame bug off spain and so there is no room for an independent republic of catalonia and no e. U. Member country none of the other twenty seven recognized cut alone the independent state in the would not do that as well the only thing is that done a task ahead of the European Council to protests today he said please dont resort to violence use forceful arguments but do not you was false so there is a slight fear that this might get out of control out of hand but officially doesnt react and says spain has to solve this problem on its own for example the the french president also said hes behind. On ohio and also the german chancellor told through a spokesman that she is behind house by house benish counterpart so theres no question they use behind the spending government ok so catalonia has no support for independence within the e. U. But in practical terms if tara long is to say yes or spain whats going to happen nothing the diplomats tell us theyve just ignore any move to become independent that will be no border there will be no tariff there will be no possible controls of things like that and every decision the cut and on government which is no longer in office now legally would take would just be ignored so nothing would change actually on the ground from the viewpoint of the European Union. And brussels but turning now to some other news can you Election Officials continue to count ballots in the countrys president ial rerun the cost of this divisive vote is becoming more apparent at least sixteen people have been killed in clashes between protesters and police ever since thursdays vote authorities have delayed plans to restage the elections tomorrow in some of the countrys Opposition Strongholds amid fears of further bloodshed and a quick warning some viewers might find the images in our next report destroy me. The violence rages on. Several people have died in clashes between police and opposition supporters in the run up to kenyas redo of its president ial elections the clashes stop some ten percent of polling stations from opening and delayed voting in many others in slums like kibera near nairobi the situation was particularly tass because it took people from the voting existence it was very difficult for us because we had to model violence from proby youths. Being only more patience then because of the unrest officials postponed voting in four counties until further notice opposition leaders continued to call on their supporters to boycott the vote citing security concerns and fraud allegations.
