Catalan Diada celebrations in Extremadura

Overview

Salvador Illa, President of the Generalitat, announced that the Diada celebrations would be held in Extremadura on September 16 and 17. This move represents a policy shift from previous years when events were held in Madrid, with the stated goal of highlighting the connections and shared bonds between Catalonia and the Extremadura community.

During the official visit to Extremadura, Illa scheduled an institutional meeting in Mérida with María Guardiola, the President of the Junta de Extremadura. This meeting marked Illa’s first encounter with a regional president governing in coalition with Vox. While the meeting aimed to foster territorial dialogue, spokesperson Sílvia Paneque noted that institutional respect does not preclude expressing “frontal disagreement” regarding certain policies or “hate speech.”
