Jorge Toledo

HARDtalk talks to Jorge Toledo. If Catalans give a majority to pro-independence parties, Spain - and the EU - will be facing a crisis. Can Madrid outmanoeuvre the secessionists?

HARDtalk's Stephen Sackur speaks to Jorge Toledo, Spain's minister for EU affairs.

Next month we'll see whether it was well advised. If Catalans give a clear majority to pro-independence parties, Spain - and the European Union - will be facing a protracted crisis. Can Madrid outmanoeuvre the secessionists?
