A police device shields the Parliament of Catalonia for the expected attendance of Carles Puigdemont to the plenary session of investiture of the new president of the Generalitat of Catalonia. In the Catalan elections, the PSC obtained 42 seats while the Republicans won 20 and the Comuns 6, which add up to the 68 deputies that the socialist leader needs to be invested. Before the plenary session, the former president of the Generalitat, Carles Puigdmont is scheduled to participate in a welcome act organized by pro-independence entities in Passeig Lluís Companys, where he can be arrested at any time after his arrival in Spain, almost 7 years after settling in Belgium due to the judicial consequences of the 'procés', and with an arrest warrant.
