Spanish Citizens Reject Pact of the Euro

A very convinced Spanish citizen explains why the Pact of the Euro must be rejected. Yesterday, Sunday 19th saw massively attended demonstrations in all major cities against the Pact of the Euro among the rest of grievances being protested in the country since #15M. #19J felt especially important as the Pact of the Euro is being signed within a few days. Many wonder how come the signing of such treaty is barely being mentioned on mainstream media.

For an idea of demonstrations’ attendance yesterday, watch the following videos. The demonstration in Barcelona carried on for 4 hours, departed from Plaza Catalunya and ended near Catalunya’s regional Parliament, about a 1.6 km walk.

– Update: Barcelona video has now been changed to one without ads. Apologies to those who have had to suffer my original choice of embed. The current video shows protestors singing L’estaca, a meaningful song about freedom in Catalunya.
