Salvador Illa will meet with Marga Prohens in Palma on November 14th

Palma / BarcelonaThe President of the Generalitat of Catalonia, Salvador Illa (PSC), will meet with the head of the Balearic Islands government, Marga Prohens (PP), on November 14 in Palma. According to sources at the Consolat de Mar and the Generalitat, the meeting was arranged at the Socialist leader's request. Illa will be in Palma with the Speaker of the Congress of Deputies, Francina Armengol, to attend a Prensa Ibérica gala. Sources from the Catalan president's team explain that he always offers to visit the president of another region whenever he travels there, and confirm that the meeting is confirmed. This is the second attempt by the two presidents to meet. In April 2025, they arranged a meeting on the occasion of the transfer of the presidency of the Pyrenees-Mediterranean Euroregion, the territorial cooperation organization between the Catalan, Balearic, and Occitanie regional governments. They were ultimately unable to meet due to time constraints. However, they already greeted each other last June in Madrid, during the Conference of Presidents.

Prohens has met with Sánchez three times

If the meeting does take place, it will be Prohens' first bilateral meeting with a regional president this legislative term. In contrast, the Balearic president has already met three times with the Spanish Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez. Sometimes, despite theopposition from her Madrid counterpartIsabel Díaz Ayuso, who in a PP executive meeting considered that meetings with the socialist should not be attended.
