(19 Oct 2017) Catalonia's separatist leader is facing an imminent deadline to withdraw a bid to secede from Spain.
Carles Puigdemont arrived around nine in the morning local time (0700GMT) at the seat of the regional government to meet with colleagues.
But an official from his party said late on Wednesday that he has no intention of withdrawing the secession bid and that he plans to make a full declaration of independence in the next few days if Spain's government resorts to taking over control of Catalonia's semi-autonomous powers.
PDeCat (Catalan European Democratic Party) coordinator Marta Pascal outlined Puigdemont's plans after a meeting late on Wednesday.
Spain has threatened to take direct control of the autonomous region if Puigdemont fails to meet the 0800 GMT Thursday cutoff.
Spain's government says it would be willing to hold off on doing that if the Catalan government were to call a snap regional election.
But a Catalan official has ruled that out.
