Rufián mocks Nogueras's gesture of removing the flag of Spain in Congress: "Super useful"

MADRID, 22 Feb. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The ERC spokesman in Congress, Gabriel Rufián, has mocked the episode starring this Tuesday by his Junts counterpart, Míriam Nogueras, who removed the Spanish flag from the lectern in the press room of the Lower House and left only the European one inside camera shot. "Super useful", he has commented sarcastically, when asked about it.

"We have separated it a little bit," Nogueras justified himself, stressing that the flag of the European Union represents "much more" to him than the Spanish one and that, in addition, it was "very cool" where he had left it.

Asked about this gesture in the corridors of the Lower House, Rufián sarcastically pointed out that he found it "super useful". "The flags do not feed, nor cure, nor console", he has added later.

After Nogueras's performance, the PP and Vox called on the president of Congress, the socialist Meritxell Batet, to take action against the Junts spokesperson. Ciudadanos also demanded respect for the official symbols in the parliamentary institution.
