Puigdemont creates 'Government of the Republic' website

(ANSAmed) - MADRID, JANUARY 12 - Former Catalan President Carles Puigdemont, currently in exile in Brussels after being deposed by the Madrid government, announced Friday on Twitter that he has created a website titled "Government of the Republic" of Catalonia.



The site, governrepublica.org, uses the logo of the regional government, the Generalitat de Catalunya.



It denounces the "impossibility of legally and institutionally defending the legitimate government of Catalonia in the face of political and judicial aggression from the Spanish state".



The web page offers an email link for contacting members of the "legitimate government".(ANSAmed).
