The President of the Constitutional Court of Spain, Cándido Conde-Pumpido, addressed the recent ruling on the amnesty for diversion of funds related to the ‘procés’ during an interview with EL PAÍS. He stated that questioning the Constitutional Court is equivalent to questioning Spanish democracy itself. With his mandate nearing its end, Conde-Pumpido also reflected on the state of justice in Spain, asserting that while “lawfare” does not exist, there is a genuine problem of the judicialization of politics. The interview occurred during a particularly sensitive week following the court’s decision. He discussed the implications of the amnesty decree and its impact on the separation of powers. The president emphasized the importance of respecting the court’s decisions as fundamental to maintaining a democratic system in Spain.
