Carles Puigdemont, the President of Catalonia, arrived today
in Denmark to attend a debate he is billed to host, leaving the airport
without being detained, Reuters reports. Spain’s State Prosecution
Service said on Sunday it would seek Puigdemont’s arrest if he traveled
from Belgium to Denmark. Spain’s state prosecutor added on Monday it had
asked the Supreme Court to reactivate a European arrest warrant to
detain the ex-leader. Puigdemont fled to Brussels in October after his
regional government declared independence from Spain on October 27
following a referendum ruled illegal by Spanish authorities. Madrid has
imposed direct rule over the region.
