The President of the Spanish government, Pedro Sánchez, has this Wednesday dissociated the partial pardon of the former President of the Parliament, Laura Borràs, from the executive's relationship with Junts and the negotiation of the General State Budgets for 2027. "It is a consequence of a resolution from the High Court of Justice of Catalonia (TSJC), which establishes that the prison sentence is excessive in the ruling," he remarked in a press conference after meeting with King Felipe VI in Palma.
"We are complying with the TSJC ruling and it has nothing to do with the budget negotiation or anything related to politics. Please, be clear about that," Sánchez argued.
