Catalan parliament set to vote Thursday on new president: speaker
Barcelona, (MILLAT ONLINE):Catalonia’s parliament is to hold a debate and vote on a new candidate for regional president, Jordi Turull, who risks being disqualified from holding office over his role in the region’s separatist drive.
“I will propose to the chamber that Jordi Turull be candidate for president,” Catalan parliament speaker Roger Torrent told reporters, just hours after Turull was summoned to appear in court on Friday.
