The federal debate becomes more and more international

The Japanese press pays attention to what insignificant Catalan academics have to say. The journalist tells me this: "I'm attaching a copy of the article as it appeared in the Saturday 8th morning edition of the Hokkaido Shimbun Press newspaper.
You'll see that we also spoke with Dr Costa-i-Font of LSE to hear his opinion on the "consultation".The large headline in the middle states "'Independence Vote' in Catalonia Tomorrow—The expert's opinion", and the large header on the left hand side summarising your viewpoint reads "What is necessary is a debate on decentralisation". The summary of Dr Costa-i-Font's section reads "The view of the people must be made known in order to find a solution".
