"The Edinburgh Agreement was an example of how two governments, with diametrically opposed views on whether or not Scotland should become independent, were able to come together to agree a process to allow the people to decide. It is essential that democracy and civil rights are respected in all countries.” ' https://news.gov.scot/news/statement-on-catalonia https://news.gov.scot/news/statement-on-catalonia
