Deputy Wagensberg (ERC) says he is "panicked to return" after settling in Switzerland for the Tsunami cause

He has been in Geneva since Christmas to meet with lawyers and human rights organizations

The ERC deputy and member of the Parliamentary Bureau, Ruben Wagensberg, who has settled in Geneva (Switzerland) after being linked to the Democratic Tsunami by the judge investigating the case at the National Court, Manuel García Castellón, said this Wednesday that he is "panicked to return to Catalonia, and seeing how the situation is getting."

Wagensberg has pointed out that "I should not have this panic, because an instruction must have guarantees", but he has assured that in his research these guarantees do not exist, in an interview in Rac1 collected by Europa Press.

However, the deputy has accepted that he wants to return to Catalonia: "What I want is to return to my country, I want to return to Catalonia, I want to do my job again, I want to be with my people again."

He stated that he settled in Geneva during the Christmas holidays, and that the main reason was to "get in touch with lawyers specializing in the matter and also with international human rights organizations."

Wagensberg denies that he has gone into exile, and recalled that he has freedom of movement, but added that before returning he wants to address his cause with lawyers and organizations in Switzerland, as well as recover because he is on medical leave for matters that involve "a little beyond anxiety."

He has also stated that the lawyers with whom he has spoken in the Alpine country about his investigation consider that it is an "illogical" situation, and has said that they all know about the independence movement.

He has criticized that his accusation responds to "a political strategy, which is that the State is using the crime of terrorism to delegitimize peaceful movements, social movements and political dissidents."

Furthermore, he has assured that he does not have any summons or judicial notification and that he did not intend to "hide from anything" when settling in Geneva.

When asked what 'Democratic Tsunami' is, the deputy stated that "there were hundreds of thousands of people that everyone saw. If anyone believes that all of this is put together by a team of eleven or twelve accused people, I think they are wrong. a lot".

He added that it was a movement of "massive citizen response to situations that feel unfair."

AMNESTY LAW

"Yesterday we lost an opportunity to take another step to generate the conditions to resolve the conflict through dialogue," he stated after Junts' decision not to support the amnesty law this Tuesday in Congress.

He has lamented that "the law is overturned, and they (the judges) have not done it", ensuring that it was the independence movement that has paralyzed the grace measure.

"We have broken the trust of the bloc, we have not needed prejudicial proceedings or the Constitutional Court, and, therefore, I believe that we have done their job," he added.

PUIGDEMONT AND ROVIRA

Wagensberg has agreed to have spoken with the general secretary of ERC, Marta Rovira, "a good friend" who also lives in Geneva.

When asked about the former president of the Generalitat Carles Puigdemont, he said that he has not yet had the opportunity to speak with him, but that he would "love to be able to do so as comrades in the cause."
