Spain’s Socialists won the biggest share of the vote in Sunday’s Catalan elections, dealing a serious blow to more than a decade of separatist governance in Catalonia. The Socialists had 42 seats in the 135-seat chamber, while hardline separatist party Junts was in second place with 35 seats and the more moderate separatist party ERC had 20 seats. The result is an existential threat to separatist governance in Catalonia, which led an illegal independence referendum in 2017. Separatist parties do not have enough seats to form a coalition government, and there is a risk the vote may need to be repeated. Separatist sentiment in Catalonia has decreased, with the pro-independence movement losing energy and unity in recent years.
