Spain’s foreign minister Alfanso Dastis cleared of his government’s position regarding sacked Catalan leader could join in next poll in December, explaining that meant only if he was not in prison. His remarked came the day as 300,000 people in a pro- unity rally got involved in a clash with Catalan independence supporter. Violence sparked when a faction of fascist supporter of independence movement showed Nazi salutes and in a counter reaction, unionist march sang ‘Viva Espana’. On the other hand Catalan crisis inflamed internal conflict in Belgian government as Belgian Secretary of State for Asylum and Migration Theo Francken told that, “people of Catalan who feel politically threatened can seek asylum in Belgium, including Puigdemont.
