The exceptional period Catalonia is going through, with the imprisonment of over half its government while president Puigdemont and four ministers are in Brussels, in addition to the intervention in Catalan self-governance with the application of article 155 of the Spanish Constitution, have led to a new call for a "countrywide standstill" to express rejection for the state of emergency Catalonia is under and to call for the release of those in preventive detention without bail.
In this context, ElNacional.cat is joining the standstill called for tomorrow. Throughout the day, we will offer a special edition in which we will only publish articles about the standstill or related to it.
