The head of the autonomous region of Catalonia Artur Mas has signed a decree on Monday to dissolve the regional parliament and hold early elections on September 27. The election campaign will start on September 11, on the National Day of Catalonia, euronews reports.

All the Catalan parties that support independence, will go to the elections with a single list.

"There was an abnormal situation in Catalonia. While a solid and clear majority of Catalans wish to exercise their right to vote in a democratic and peaceful way, this right is constantly being denied. Dialogue and negotiations were blocked, as well as a contract or agreement. This means that we are in a unique position that requires exceptional solutions," Artur Mas said.
