Catalonia's president Carles Puigdemont and other members of the regional government have fled to Brussels amid charges of rebellion, sedition, and embezzlement. The charges announced by Spain's prosecutor general and the departure of Puigdemont threaten a diplomatic crisis between Spain and Belgium. Kusai Kedri has filed this report from Barcelona.
