27-Mar-24: 'New Catalan push to make Catalan official in the EU'
After previous failed attempts, the Catalan government has launched a new push to make Catalan an official EU language. Catalonia's foreign minister, Meritxell Serret, has already held informal talks with Hungary, the next rotating presidency of the EU Council, to ensure that the proposal remains on the agenda. A change in the EU's language policy requires unanimous support, and several countries have expressed doubts about its legal, political and economic implications.
