Next Stop: Referendum

After going through the moves (it amuses me when they call it a defeat, as if the outcome could have been different) and having to go to Madrid to present the plan for a new political relationship with Madrid, Ibarretxe decided to continue forward and called early elections and a referendum.

Personally, I liked this part a lot:

"No-one who calls themselves a democrat can deny our right to decide for ourselves," Ibarretxe told a news conference after an emergency cabinet meeting. "We can only co-exist with Spain by our own free will."

I wonder if those calling the Ibarretxe proposal a seccecionist plan realize how much they sound like Milosevic.
