Puigdemont vows to 'fight' on after extradition decision

BARCELONA –Catalonia's deposed leader Carles Puigdemont said Thursday he and other separatists would "fight until the end" after a German court decided to allow his extradition, but not on the severe charge of rebellion demanded by a Spanish judge. 


"We will fight to the end, and we will win," tweeted Puigdemont who is wanted by Spain over his role in Catalonia's failed independence bid in October.
