German executives against independence in Catalonia
As Albert Peters , promoter of the platform for foreign businessmen in Catalonia, explains to El Confidencial Digital, the messages to the emails of the signatories of the manifesto have multiplied in recent days. Many have congratulated the executives for their proposal. Specifically, explains Peters, " large companies from Madrid, Germany and Holland with business in Catalonia have sent us emails congratulating us for our bravery, since many do not dare to get 'wet' in this matter." However, and despite the reservations of businessmen living in Catalonia to express their opinion regarding the sovereignty challenge of Artur Mas, the number of affiliations and supports of the manifesto has experienced a great increase since the end of last week: “We already have 200 signatures against independence .” Threats and insults from pro-independence sectors Despite the great reception this initiative has had, the German businessmen who signed the manifesto against the Generalitat project have also received messages containing insults and threats. As Peter remembers, “ there are some who compare us to the Francisco Franco Foundation .” Despite this, "we are calm, since in our document we use the statements and opinions of the main European authorities who have warned of the consequences of independence , so we are not inventing anything." Conversations with the political authorities of Catalonia Before making public their manifesto against the independence of Catalonia, the German businessmen who promoted the text have tried to meet and speak with the main political authorities of Catalonia to convey their opinion on the process.
According to Albert Peters, “we have spoken with Artur Mas, Felip Puig, Josep Antoni Duran i Lleida and Alicia Sánchez-Camacho .” The CiU spokesperson in Congress “was in favor of achieving its own tax system for Catalonia before independence, but we did not go much deeper either.” Furthermore, as reported in these pages , Peters himself was able to speak with Jorge Moraga s last May, when Mariano Rajoy's chief of staff moved to Phone Number ListBarcelona to attend the Motor Show.The vice president of the Government hits the North American giant in exchange for winning over the Spanish publishers with this rate from Google and the Internet aggregators, who will have to negotiate with the authors a mandatory payment for their news services. For months, the Minister of Education, José Ignacio Wert , has been negotiating with those involved a reform of the Intellectual Property Law that did not include this fee for Google and news aggregators. In none of the drafts that have been handled until Friday had this old demand of newspaper editors appeared. So much so, that in the draft that was leaked the same Friday night and published by El País on its website, the two paragraphs that 'legalize' what is now known in the sector as the 'Google rate', are in red , different the usual black color of the rest of the text. The next day, when the final draft law is officially known, everything is the same. The reason is that Soraya Sáenz de Santamaría imposed her criteria again and this rate for news aggregators was included in the text at the last minute.

In fact, as El Confidencial Digital has learned , the day before the council of ministers, several ministries involved in its preparation were unaware that it was going to be included. Agreement with editors In the battle between the aggregators and the editors of the large newspapers, grouped in AEDE, the winners are the latter. Sources familiar with the facts assure that everything is part of a broader pact in which the newspapers have now committed to "selling the economic recovery in the face of the European elections . " According to these sources, the creator of this entire operation on the part of the editors has been a man from José Manuel Lara , with whom the vice president and president Mariano Rajoy himself maintain an excellent relationship. This is Mauricio Casals , president of the newspaper La Razón and trusted man of the Catalan businessman who owns Atresmedia. Some sources even point out that the dismissal of Pedro J. Ramírez from the direction of El Mundo, an old aspiration of Moncloa, would have contributed to Sáenz de Santamaría making this decision so favorable to the editors and so unexpected for the rest of those involved. that ultimately the majority of the German press had to give up to be on Google News because the American giant refused to pay: whoever did not want to be on Google News, He could retire and not be there. But the norm approved in Spain, which still has to go through the Congress of Deputies, eliminates the right to renounce that payment .
