How Carles Puigdemont Escaped From Spain
After an appearance in Barcelona, Spain issued an arrest warrant for
Catalan separatist leader Carles Puigdemont, ending his seven years in exile.
On Thursday morning, Catalonia's former regional president, Carles Puigdemont, returned from self-imposed exile after nearly seven years.
Citing an appearance in Barcelona, Spain initiated an arrest warrant for Puigdemont, a vocal advocate for Catalan independence, whose government's actions led to his ouster in 2017.
Despite the warrant, Puigdemont managed to evade authorities, sparking questions about his escape route and the level of support he received.
Authorities are actively searching for Puigdemont, who faces charges related to his role in the Catalan independence referendum.
