1. Bewildered by Mr Borrell trip to Russia? Angry about the humiliation that the EU has suffered because of him? Mr Borrell is marked by his own history and statements such as supporting ministers who led a state terrorism group. Follow the thread to find more 
2. Borrell’s has been very active on human rights inside Spain, but in the wrong side of it. Violating them. How many European know that a PSOE government organized a state terrorism group (GAL) in the eighties? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GAL_(paramilitary_group)
3. How many Europeans know that this state terrorism group called GAL killed close to thirty people? And when their leaders, a Minister and high officials of PSOE, were condemned what was Borrell’s reaction?
4. Borrell’s reaction was to say that the Barrionuevo, former PSOE Minister, condemned for state terrorism were to be “part of his political project”. https://elpais.com/diario/1998/09/13/espana/905637608_850215.html
5. All that was in the late nineties, but what did Borrell do when the events in Catalonia unfolded in 2017?
6. First, he supported the police brutality of October 1st. And how do we know it? Because in January 2019 he was still denying that it really happened and calling it “fake news” https://twitter.com/ARApolitica/status/1087396379406811137?s=20
7. Then, he actively participated in demonstrations that united all anti-independence forces, including the extreme-right and called in a press conference to “desinfect” Catalonia’s society, treating pro-independence supporters as sickness.
8. Shortly after, when Catalan politicians and social leaders were imprisoned. Borrell’s reaction was quick to mock @junqueras publicly. Not exactly edifying. https://twitter.com/lizcastro/status/1003991409588748288?s=20
9. Later on he became Spain’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, but his activity justifying the repression against Catalan political leaders was relentless. Even giving orders to his ambassadors to follow Catalan President Quim Torra on his trips. https://www.elnacional.cat/ca/politica/borrell-ordena-ambaixadors-perseguir-torra-estranger_345375_102.html
10. Moreover, it is an irony of destiny that Russia has fired European diplomats last week, because that is precisely what Borrell did while he was Minister. First, he instructed his Ministry to put surveillance on the activity of consuls in Barcelona https://www.vilaweb.cat/noticies/josep-borrell-vigilancia-consols-barcelona/
11. First, he retired the diplomatic credentials to Flanders representative in Spain because the President of Flanders Parliament criticized the imprisonment of his colleague Carme Forcadell, former President of Catalan Parliament https://twitter.com/324cat/status/1052260729561198592
12. Secondly, Borrell forced the resignation of Greece consul in Barcelona https://www.elnacional.cat/ca/politica/espanya-cessament-consol-grecia-barcelona-diada_315333_102.html
13. And then Borrell said that he would fire any consul that would support the Catalan process of independence. Even though the threat was already was already quite clear https://twitter.com/naciodigital/status/1074719875514347520
14. Obviously, he does not like to speak about the Catalan issue, as all the audience of DW could see in this most infamous interview. “Stop this record” he was shouting when didn’t like the questions. https://twitter.com/anticorruption/status/1111274489785057281
15. Neither he liked it when the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detentions called for the release on Catalan prisoners... https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/may/29/carles-puigdemont-welcomes-un-panel-report-on-jailed-catalan-separatists
16. ...Borrell’s reaction was...to reject the resolution and ask to ban UN experts from the panel! https://www.elperiodico.cat/ca/politica/20190531/espanya-demana-inhabilitar-els-membres-del-comite-de-lonu-que-van-demanar-alliberar-els-presos-7482931
17. Meanwhile Catalan political prisoners have already spent ten times more days in jail than Borrell’s friends responsible for state terrorism. Instructive right? https://www.elnacional.cat/es/politica/junqueras-forn-presos-barrionuevo-gal_238764_102.html
18. The EU has a problem with Borrell. And has a problem with Spain’s imprisonment and exile of Catalan social and political leaders. Until it doesn’t solve it, it will lose credibility around the world.
19. Who will not dare to confront Borrell on Human Rights knowing his stance on Catalonia? If the EU wants to regain global credibility (and we need it to do it!), it must start with a #BorrellExit and to act swiftly to find a real political solution for Catalonia.
