The Spanish region of Catalonia is holding important regional elections, after a campaign that has focused on the issue of independence. Artur Mas has called an anticipated general elections because he thinks that Catalonia needs more decision's power and be more respected. He would like the same conditions as Spain because we are paying every year millions of euros. But there many problems and Mas needs absolute majority. There are other candidates with different ideas and with different objectives (PP, PSC, ERC, ICV...). Maybe the independence isn't the most important topic, because there much people without any job and some of them without house. I think that they must work together to get more power and can bring Catalonia to a better future. But this elections are very important for our future and for the future generations.
If Mas get the absolute majority (it's very difficult), he want to hold a referendum where the region should break away from the rest of Spain. Rajoy (actual Spain's president) probably will not allow the referendum like Scotland. If we get the independence probably we won't be able to be a member of the UE. Artur says the wealthy and influential north-eastern region gets a raw funding deal from the central government, and his centre-right Catalan Nationalist Coalition (CiU) will be hoping for a majority in the regional parliament. I think I'll be too much difficult to enter to the UE but Mas and other independent candidates say yes. We will see which results get each candidate and his/her actions for the future of this nation.
