- EU court clears path for Spain’s Catalan amnesty
The European Union’s top court ruled that Spain’s 2024 amnesty law for the Catalan independence movement does not breach EU law, allowing it to proceed with limited exceptions. The ruling permits Spain to address terrorism-related prosecutions and financial claims tied to the independence movement, except in cases involving intentional serious human rights violations or EU financial interests. The court emphasized that amnesties are generally a national prerogative under EU law.
