Appointment of Catalan Regional Head Postponed

The Catalan parliament speaker said the vote for a new regional head, planned for Tuesday, had been postponed but insisted that self-exiled, former leader Carles Puigdemont was the only viable candidate to lead Catalonia. Today’s session has been postponed, but under no circumstance cancelled … another candidate will not be presented,” Roger Torrent said on Tuesday in a press conference.
