MADRID - The leaders of the two main Catalan separatist parties agreed to pressure Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez to make more political concessions to Catalonia.

Musk, who is set to serve under U.S. President-elect Donald Trump as an external adviser in charge of streamlining the government, waded into Spanish affairs on Sunday by commenting on X about an article that said that rape convictions in Spain's northeastern region of Catalonia were mainly carried out by foreigners.

One of Sánchez's key concessions to Catalan separatists was the approval of a controversial amnesty law that pardoned around 300 separatist activists, including Puigdemont himself, involved in illegal actions in Catalonia between 2012 and 2023, including the serious secession attempt of October 2017.

The move came as Sanchez’s Socialist-led government grapples with growing concerns over rising home prices nationwide. It was part of a broader set of measures, including a pledge to provide state-backed guarantees for specific rentals and the transfer of thousands of homes owned by the national bad bank to a newly established housing agency.
