Spanish PM Visits China

Spanish PM Visits China

The visit highlights Sánchez's determination to steer an independent course for Spain, even as it risks annoying the Trump administration.

During his meetings with Chinese officials, the Prime Minister emphasized the need for cooperation on climate change, security, and global inequality.

Spain remains one of Europe's loudest proponents of expanding trade with China, viewing the country as a strategic ally rather than a purely geopolitical rival.

The trip comes at a time of heightened trans-Atlantic tension over trade policies and military strategy.
