Catalonia's former regional president Carles Puigdemont speaks during a news conference in Brussels, Thursday, Dec. 19, 2019. In a potentially stinging reversal for Spanish justice authorities, the European Union's top court ruled Thursday that former Catalan regional Vice-President Oriol Junqueras, serving a prison sentence for his role in a banned independence referendum two years ago, had the right to parliamentary immunity when he was on trial. The case is likely to set an important precedent for Puigdemont, who is living in exile in Belgium. (AP Photo/Francisco Seco)
