Hundreds of thousands gathered Sunday in Barcelona to call for Spain's unity on the second day of protests against Catalan secession from the country. At least 35,000 people reportedly joined the rally. They praised the actions taken by the government over the past week and criticized some local politicians who've encouraged the secession attempt. "I believe Catalonia belongs to Spain. We used to live together without any problems. They should talk but not until the regional government returns to legality," said a protester.
