Spanish PM: Strong ties with China in Europe's interest
"I firmly believe it is in Spain's and Europe's interests to strengthen ties with China. The trade between China and Spain has an excessive deficit, which is unsustainable for the long term."
"Following talks last Thursday, agreements were reached to expand market access for Spanish agricultural products in China and to support the development of Spain's transport and infrastructure sectors."
"We must continue moving toward a multipolar order built on respect and pragmatism. Spain is particularly eager to strengthen its political and economic ties with Beijing."
Spain is advocating for enhanced trade relations with China, positioning itself as a bridge between China and the EU. Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez emphasizes the need to address the significant trade deficit, which has reached nearly $50 billion. Agreements have been made to improve market access for Spanish agricultural products and support infrastructure development. Sanchez believes in fostering a multipolar world and strengthening ties with China, especially given the current tensions with the US over various geopolitical issues.
