L'Obs (formerly Le Nouvel Observateur), the most prominent weekly French news magazine, has spoken with the wife of Jordi Cuixart, one of the Catalan pro-independence leaders due to go on trial in the Supreme Court next week.
After meeting in Paris with Txell Bonet, the journalist describes a woman (link in French, behind a paywall) who "hasn't come to cry, but to fight. No quavering in her voice, hardly a reference to her baby who's growing up without his father. She's been waiting a long time for this day".

The newspaper talks briefly about the background to the case, noting that: "like Txell Bonet, all the independence supporters are waiting impatiently for this trial. Far from neutralising them, it's galvanising them".
