What are the immediate financial implications for Aragón based on the differing stances on the proposed Catalan funding model?

The meeting between Jorge Azcón and Pilar Alegría regarding Aragón's stance on the potential Catalan funding deal ended without agreement, leaving both leaders disappointed.

This disagreement highlights deep divisions over financial implications and the fairness of the proposed model.",A2="Azcón claims Aragón would lose €1.294 billion under Alegría's proposed model—six times the regional government's estimate.
