“We have all followed the recent events in Catalonia with some concern. With a number of people injured following clashes on Sunday, I urge constructive dialogue and respect for the rule of law by all in Spain. Differences must be resolved through political dialogue, and I fully trust that Spain’s democratic institutions can provide this opportunity. Respect for the rule of law and fundamental democratic and human rights principles must apply to all, and so I also urge all the authorities to use due restraint and proportionality when enforcing the law.”
