Ban Ki Moon (UN Secretary) in favor of Catalan independence? She did not tell him!

(This is the third part of a general discussion on the referendum, read the second part )

THE 4 April 2013 There was also another piece of news released by the referendum officials, for which the UN secretary would have supported the self-determination of Catalonia ( http://www.lindipendenza.com/catalogna-lonu-appoggia-il-processo-di-autodeterminazione/ ) . Too bad that's not what happened.

For example, according to Vox.gi , “After having been asked about Catalonia’s self-determination process, Ban Ki-moon answered he makes a call to the leaders throughout the world to use their political leadership and their capacities to solve all the conflicts through dialogue and peaceful means.”

Ban Ki-moon,in reality, he said that “the United Nations respect the self-determination process.” and specified that the Catalan case must be resolved through dialogue and peaceful means.

In an excerpt video discovered by Vivereveneto.com , Ban Ki Moon says simply that “all legal disputes between states and in the states, It should be resolved by peaceful means, with dialogue, respecting the aspirations of the people involved”. So full newspeak did not say anything. In fact it can be interpreted in a double way. for example, given that Catalonia is not a state, the issue of Catalonia should be answered in the internal rules of Spain. Or, given that it is a population with interests, but not yet a state, then it should also be seen in international law …..oppure no ?

Now we may have a desire to argue that it is support for the Catalan referendum, but he did not say that the referendum could be held, or that Catalonia has the right to self-determination. He just said, as it is written in the UN charter , that the United Nations hope dialogue.

The fact is that Catalans are not recognized as a people by Spain, and then legally speaking they do not have the right to self-determination. So much so that they even tried to have it written into the regional statute that they are a nation, but the statute was rejected. Then it can be said that being in practice a people, self-determination and can get up to get rid War, but which we talk of war, of confrontation.

Exactly this says Ban Ki Moon : seek dialogue, implicit, do not go to war . then ?

Don't daydream about independence referendums trying to see what they want and not what is . Ban Ki-moon , primed by the questions, He responded only full diplomatic style newspeak, without saying anything or taking sides, just making a call to peace and dialogue. I am sure that the same response was read by the Spaniards as a call to Catalonia not to pursue independence (that is, war in the eyes of Madrid), because for the Spaniards the Catalans are not a legally recognized people, and I don't think there would be many scruples about guaranteeing territorial integrity with commissioner or police operations. The case demonstrates the Basque .

Meanwhile, the new statute in which Catalonia became a nation was rejected by Madrid. Ban Ki Moon The call to continue dialogue, it's a lot, ie forever, it will have been read by the Spaniards as the certainty of being right and a warning to the Catalans .

For Spain the Catalans are a linguistic minority, and as such are entitled to bilingualism, perhaps to national minority self-government, but not to independence. In short, Catalonia does not have the right to self-determination in law as a Catalan people, although there, It has no legal recognition . These basic concepts are also confused by the Venetian politicians who present themselves as liberators. If Catalonia wants independence it must actually take it by force, that is, with the war, and perhaps Spain is not afraid to get to this, and to send their tanks. On the other hand, no country will ever question the principle of territorial integrity of another country, it would be a harmful principle that has already been rejected with Kosovo.

Furthermore, it cannot be ruled out that the cry for independence is just a trick by the Catalans to bring home more autonomy. It can be a technique (I hope it is not what they are doing the Catalans), but I read that the president of the Catalan region Artur Mas, stated that “If you will not be’ a new agreement on fees with the central government will open’ the path towards the freedom of Catalonia”, as saying that “if you give us autonomy we give up independence”. But if this is the intent , the risk then is to end up like Bossi and the Northern League: For 25 years they have incited secession but managed to bring it home, Apparently, only benefits for them and their family. Some people believed it and ended up in prison, only to eventually be pardoned by the Minister (From Rome) Northern League. If we want this is a strategy that does not lead to freedom, and it caused him to lose 25 years to true independence, numb behind the chimera of secession through the Institutions, and still comatose.

In general, secession is not achievable through the institutions from which one wants to free oneself, because states obviously have internal rules and legal mechanisms that effectively prevent these hypotheses.

The question becomes: because the Veneto referendum officials mystify Ban Ki Moon's words? Because they mystify so many other things?

Above all, because they do not recognize that the Veneto people have the right to self-government and can exercise it ? Are we or are not recognized as a people? If, because he expects to join the Self-Determination started in 1999 ?

After speaking of Catalonia, now we come to the Veneto case because incredibly the Veneto region has also declared sovereignty , and he did so in 1998, with the resolution 42 .
