It gets better, watching Sky news earlier it was commented that as Belgium does not have a law against rebellion then Spain would have difficulty getting a European arrest warrant.

if the EU gets involved [any country that helps Spain in the block] could become a target if things turn nasty as they tend to in Spain

Dear Spain allow Catalonia to have a proper referendum... and if they vote independence than accept it... Otherwise two or more of your regions are looking at your draconian response to Catalonia with horror.

Others too in Europe I'm sure which is why the EU wouldn't condemn the state violence outright. They were happy to have a severe message sent out to others who might dare to rock the EU boat.

Three-quarters of a million people have rallied in Barcelona to protest against Spain's detention of Catalan independence leaders, police estimate.
They shone phone torches in unison at sunset as calls were made to free eight regional ministers and two grassroots campaign leaders being held on remand.
Some of the detainees will be included on the list of a Catalan separatist party at next month's snap election.
Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy is to visit the city on Sunday.
In another development, Barcelona's mayoress has condemned pro-independence leaders.
