Spain's PM Sánchez Urges China to Take Bigger Global Role

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez visited China and urged Beijing to take a bigger role in a multipolar world order. He called on China to do more to end the wars in Iran and Ukraine and to open up so Europe does not have to close itself off. Sánchez stressed the need for a clear-eyed understanding of China and closer China-EU ties. He greeted an audience at Tsinghua University in Chinese and emphasized mutual understanding and cooperation. The visit comes amid strains with the United States.
