“Con esta visita, el presidente del Gobierno quiere lanzar dos mensajes: que ni el diálogo territorial que asegura que impulsará en esta legislatura se acaba en Catalunya, ni la atención especial que depara a intentar encauzar el conflicto político catalán irá en menoscabo del resto de territorios de España, ni mucho menos les perjudicará.” — With this visit, the Prime Minister wants to convey two messages: that neither the territorial dialogue he assures he will promote during this legislative term ends in Catalonia, nor the special attention that he intends to give to steering the Catalan political conflict will detract from the rest of Spain's territories, much less harm them.
