No Spanish judge would 'dare' protect a German acting against 'constitutional order', says MEP

“We believe in all States' right to protect themselves,” declared a Spanish MEP who defended Spain’s handling of the Catalan conflict on Monday, in a letter addressed to the European Parliament.

Esteban González Pons, an MEP for Spain’s ruling People's Party (PP) warned that "you can be sure that any Judge in Spain, either regional, national or from the Supreme Court, would [not] dare to give a legal shelter to a German political party, movement or individual who were trying to break the German constitutional order."
