Restored. And with all the electoral guarantees. And everybody being able to take part in them i wish to say that the yesterday. Took place in a normal man manner in a peaceful manner and that all citizens were able to participate in the democratic right to be able to vote furthermore the electoral stations. I think happened without any events taking. Any event special events taking place during the whole day and that all the. Everybody were able to. Do what they were assigned to do by the law. In a clean and clear manner. The high turnout which as you know it was. Happened in these elections was the answer of the civic. Duty of the citizen citizens. Regarding the elect the results they are known and i wont repeat them to you but i do wish to congratulate and have done so already personally this morning to you know said the mothers and her party ive also spoken to her president who have won the elections both in the number of seats and as votes the negative of this result from my point of view is that what we wanted to the those that want to change had not. Been able to achieve it through the number of seats however its worth mentioning that the independent sponsors have. Received support but less than what we would like but still they are losing support in two thousand and ten in the autonomous votes of catalonia they had seventy six point seven six ships is in two thousand and twelve seventy four and in two thousand and fifteen seventy two and yes the day two thousand and seventeen seventy. The same happening this regarding the percentages in two thousand and ten it was the forty eight seventy six in two thousand and seventeen forty seven forty nine point forty nine whats also. Clear. From these results from yesterday is that nobody able to talk about to talk in the name of catatonia if they do not take into account poll catalunya whats clear for following these votes is the catalonia is not a monist its the plural and we must all cultivate this plurality as a virtue and as a richness these election. So the covering is plural and we must all respect that and look after it its also clear that the fracture that the radicalization has shown in the cut the law society is clear its a fracture which will take time to repair to to mend and this must be the first obligation of all of the active political actors the necessary reconciliation must come from a legal manner and respecting the rights of everybody the majority and the men which is what its now up to the Political Parties cut the loonier to offer the solution. To govern that. Deserve. The result of the authority they cam in the camera. Like all the governors. In spain and in the whole of europe. The following the law because furthermore respecting laws and without a responsible government in catalonia to respect them it would be impossible to generate security and certainty and as a consequence the companies that have left will not be coming will not come back and the loss of. People who invest. And Large Companies new companies in medium ones the return of tourism and the growth Economic Growth strong Economic Growth. The elections always think always supposed to be an all new Democratic Change the opportunity to open and use the stage in catalonia. Now he. Must have dialogue and not confrontation. In the plurality. Not in the you know that much by distance spain wants to maintain all of its support and dialogue constructive dialogue and open and realistic. Always within the law. Rules which are made in catalonia to resolve the problems of the catalonia people and to generate a security and certainty which is absolutely indispensable as i said in order to be able to continue growing and for employment and to ensure a better and richer future for all people. At your. Service to any questions. I mean. You know you know ducati to go get him and he got him when they thought the previous day i dont have anything to say regarding the article one point five in the results which were seen yesterday and once again the election regarding the elections do you have any concrete offer to make to the citizens in catalunya. Article hundred fifty five i believe was applied as it should have been. It wasnt applied when. The cut a loon in government first made their decision the law to act i think we were prudent and i think that it was a positive manner it was applied with the consensus of a large majority in the senate and the second and fourth and first strength in spain there was a mature large majority it was applied i believe in a manner. Television manner because we didnt decide to name a new government but it was the own government of spain that assumed the responsibility and things worked very well during all this period. All governments. Take decisions which affect the people in catalonia it was applied also but the consensus of all of europe nobody in europe. Supported the independence party. Views. And especially. The elections were called quickly with the objective to restore the legality and i hope that as i said before that the situation. Will continue in the future. To everybody who lives in catalonia i. Firstly. They for which is the proper im the president of the government of spain and therefore i am the president of the citizens of catalonia and i will make an effort to hold a dialogue with the government of catalonia but as i said i would also make efforts that laws will be kept and therefore i hope that a government that will. Abandon the unilateral decisions will be what will come forward and will maintain laws and not break the laws. I believe. That there are many objectives one very important one is the to try to overcome the fractures which have been produced which have produced one of the principal consequence is negative consequences of the decisions incorrect decisions that have been taken over the last months and that the citizens and friends that i have known from. We are open to normalize the situation. Which is one of the main objectives that we have to Work Together and we are now in a period of Economic Growth but we. Must still create employment and for this one need security and tranquility and with the desire keeping within the law using common sense not taking unilateral decisions and if its understood that we live in europe and that we are in the twenty First Century and that the. Law must be upheld. Then things can work in a different manner i would do everything that is within my power to do that. But i say so i will not. Allow the. Doors of the car to be broken nobody would do that. Youre watching aljazeera there is the spanish Prime MinisterMariano Rajoy taking journalist questions in the spanish capital madrid on the results as we know them so far of the catalan vote over the future you might say of that region within the union of spain he talked very eloquently and hospitably you might say about the voting itself and that it was the duty of every catalan to vote and that they did the then went on into statistics that the catalan vote has actually decreased over the years but he said really that at this moment in time its a about. Accepting the radicalization of the catalan area how fractured it is and how he intends to mend it and that the political actors need to try and reconcile in a legal manner to try and shore up their political differences he was willing to talk to opposition groups within the basis of the parameters of the law that every effort would be made by the government that immigrant to have that dialogue lets bring in our correspondent whos was listening in to that press conference by the spanish Prime Minister i think i sort of summed it up there karl i hope what the Prime Minister had to say but in doing so politicians now have to try and find a way of working together considering that colors more has said from brussels hes willing to talk. Yeah i think you summed this up very correctly very precisely but the devil is in the detail here and so when the spanish Prime MinisterMariano Rajoy comes out and says he is ready to talk with the new leaders of the capital and Parliament Within the basis of the law what effectively he is ruling out from the get go assa precondition is that he will not talk about the proposed path to secession or even a legal referendum to address that question what he clearly has not addressed in any of his speech so far despite journalists questions is that his effort to break the back of the catalonia Session Movement by calling the snap elections well that policy has completely backfired because the secession blog has been returned to a majority in the Capital Parliament but i want to bring in john lopez hes a Political Science professor. What is your read on speech well if he hasnt recognized the problem another time he is the. New president president bush is a moan as i mean a person to speak with and hes seeing that hes not going to recognize any of the bell a man of the brain in these platforms thing is going on in the same direction so far exactly because right now Prime Minister talked about the lore and respect for the law but there is a legal obstacle to the new elected Parliament Taking office and that is because weve got politicians in exile weve got politicians in jail weve got others on bail facing trial how big a problem is that its a big problem because we have to remind that there are eight elected m. P. s who are now out with problems to just to assist to the parliament some of them are in jail in and one of them is a possible new president of the cattle and government so the negotiations and the result of the political problem the problem probably. Situation its more difficult because of the. Because of the justice and all the legal aspects of this problem no do you think theres anything in that speech that weve just heard from Prime Minister that the process session parties will listen to and say there is our opening that is where we can start the dialogue or do you think this is just the Prime Minister restating his position we still have political divisions on both sides i think there is nothing new in this is a speech i mean its just the same exactly the same there is a Legal Framework and you have to follow this Legal Framework we dont recognise that Catalan Government if they want to develop. This platform there is nothing new i think this is precisely one of the problems of the future we hope that we have exactly the same picture of the government to say that we had before probably there one hundred fifty five article is going to be stopped if there are a new parliament and we dont have any. Way to develop. Between the spanish and theyve got the government but a lot of this is still in Prime Minister always hands he has to call the new parliamentary session he has to allow candidates to be sworn in is the Prime Minister going to allow college pushed him on to be sworn in once again as the head of the cattle and government is he going to allow people to come out of jail to take their seats in parliament i think the answer of the president is going to say its not my position is not my duty its a matter of justice and justice only the. President puts them on as a possible new candidate for for the new government some hes going to be just you know the offensive position and i think this is the future most of the. Problem is going to be rule through the justice not between legal. But after all promise that ill call these questions all these elections effectively saying let the people decide the cattle politicians on all sides played by. And now effectively if it doesnt lead elected candidates take their seats this no longer is a question of process session or secession its a question of democracy is not of course what they would say that the question of the modesty is the one that has i mean rule of frame all these process i wouldnt say that this process is independent or not independence about its i mean im out there of. The demand that this we have to not to forget that seventy percent of population and seventy percent of m. P. s of the other are in favor of a referendum for independence and the referendum is not possible because its funny norman dont want to negotiate so again its a matter of rights and democracy i would say in the foreground this is the model for many things that was just a lopez a Political Science professor what clearly seems to be emerging for this is that these elections have not solved the cattle and the spanish crisis this is going to rumble on for some time to come and i doubt there is going to be too much more movement until early in the next year well for the moment believe it of course and come back to the situation develops thank you. Now back to thursdays u. N. General Assembly Vote where members overwhelmingly adopted the resolution rejecting president Donald Trumps recognition of jerusalem as the capital of israel defying u. S. Threats of aid cuts mike hanna has more from the United Nations in new york and. The two thirds majority is comfortably reach this vote to were sweeping repudiation of President Trumps unilateral action in recognizing jerusalem as the capital of israel the result heralded by the apparent isolation of the u. S. Delegation in the chamber and the enthusiastic welcome given to the palestinians. Whose foreign minister addressed the assembly and insisted that jerusalem would be the capital of a palestinian state mr Merrill Young we meet today not because of any animosity towards the u. S. But because of its decision which constitutes an aggression on the genuine and natural rights of the Palestinian People to the city of jerusalem. The israeli ambassador holding up a two thousand year old coin as evidence of israels claim to the city it proves their ancient connection of the jewel to jerusalem and togo one dearest sent guatemala to join the six nations that had voted against a similar resolution affirming jerusalem status last month. And a number of abstentions increased from nine to thirty five the spec haps a result of the threats made by the us to retaliate financially against those who voted in favor this is bullying and this jumble will not bow to the duck it is unethical who think that works and dignity off Member States are for sale let me put it industry we will not be intimidated you can be strong but it doesnt make you right. Dismissive u. S. Reaction during
