8-Jan-18 TV News: 'Puigdemont taking office at a distance on the table'

<p>&nbsp;</p> <p>As the Christmas period comes to an end, time for rest in Catalan politics does so as well. After the December 21 elections, won by the pro-independence parties, an intense January lies ahead. In the coming weeks, the new Parliament has to appoint its president and bureau, and soon afterwards, a new Catalan president for the next government. The candidate of the parties for a Catalan state is Carles Puigdemont, but he&rsquo;s in Brussels and could be arrested as soon as he sets foot in Catalonia. Can he be appointed remotely? We&rsquo;ll find out what the parties&rsquo; opinion on this possibility is, and we&rsquo;ll also interview a doctor to talk about the new episode of the flu sweeping across the country.</p> / ACN
