Russia was asked for help by the Catalan independence movement.

Investigators intercepted several phone calls and text messages exchanged by David Madí, a Catalan businessman of Puigdemont's utmost confidence, claiming that he had been ordered to create three working groups to "ensure that the future Catalan republic develops its own legislation on cryptocurrencies, appropriate to Russian interests."

In this case, the foolish Catalan independence movement dared to annoy a world power only as a strategy to continue to blackmail the Spanish government in its purposes to obtain more privileges than the rest of the regions, in reality the last thing they want is independence from Spain.

You can't bully one of the big guys and use it for small political gains, so I urge Russia to hold these little pro-independence midgets accountable for endangering Russia's own security.

Yes and Martians are real too

Although it may seem like science fiction, it is totally real and it has also been partly the responsibility of all European countries, their press and also the United States press when for decades they believed the lies of Catalan independence without contrasting it with other opinions of so many people who were warning in all the media how dangerous these people were due to their great idiotism.

The evidence of Russia's contacts with Catalan nationalism began before the "próces" and have links to the 3%.
Moscow found in corruption the gateway to Catalonia and the vehicle to promote political contacts.

Russian envoys went so far as to propose a videoconference between Puigdemont and Putin to confirm Moscow's support.

More and more evidence and testimonies prove the meetings and contacts between Puigdemont and his and Putin's envoys to help them break up Spain.

The point is that the naive Russians were unaware that they were being used by the Catalan independence movement simply to somehow impress or blackmail the Spanish government on behalf of the independence movement, in no way did they want independence, as evidenced by their withdrawal once Russia agreed to help them achieve independence.

The Russians must have thought and believed that the pro-independence politicians are serious and formal politicians, I am sorry, they are totally wrong if they thought this, they have simply used you for small political returns in Spain, they have used you Mr. Russians simply as puppets to carry out their marketing of continued extortion of the Spanish government, so it is time that now it is you who will knock on their door to ask for explanations.
