Spanish premier urges China to take bigger role in multipolar order

From channelnewsasia.com

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez on Monday (Apr 13) said China should take on a more substantial role with issues including climate change, security, defence and the fight against inequality, adding that Europe will also have to redouble its efforts as the US withdraws from leadership roles on many fronts. Sanchez, who is making his fourth visit to China in four years, spoke at Beijing's Tsinghua University. His three-day visit comes as many Western governments seek to maintain engagement with Beijing despite lingering security and trade tensions. It follows visits to China earlier this year by the prime ... (full story)

This is the same prime minister who has opened the floodgates to over 500,000 illegal immigrants to grant them right to remain (many of whom wiill probably not stay in Spain).https://x.com/i/status/2042615737412428058
Pedro Sanchez is a communist and will destroy Spain.
Asking China to assist with climate change is like asking a wolf to guard the sheep.

Yes and this is a NATO member country asking for China's help.
If he could pick up the country and nestle it right next to China, he would not hesitate.

I guess Spain is ripe for your next set of proxies which means it will be in ruins in no time at all.
Every country gets touched by the cult of the mullahs goes straight into the toilet. Poor Spain.

Why is Pedro urging the primary authoritarian power to take on more of a role? The entire reason the international system is in flux is because the rules-based order was challenged by countries like Russia, China, Iran etc deciding to build huge militaries to challenge the US led order. There's now great power conflict instead of globalisation that benefits all.

China is not disrespecting the rules based order. The US is.

That's just not true though. You ought to learn what the rules-based order is and who the revisionist powers are.

It's absolutely true. Threatening Canada, Denmark, kidnapping Maduro, attacking Iran, the tariffs... agree with it or not they were all against the rules based order the US themselves created.

wtf is rule-based-order - its either international law based order, as agreed through the UN charter or there is no order.

rules means selective application, rules means it changes based on situation, rules is what a teacher tells its pupils how to behave - its not law based on fairness and equality!

ICJ wanted war criminals still at large because of rule-based-order

You need to educate yourself instead of ranting continually on here.

Might I suggest World Order by Kissinger for a light read for the common man? It explains nicely (with citation) what the current world order is and how it came to be.

I have a better suggestion, since you brought up "rule-based-order" you explain it in simple terms.... I mean it must be something you can define and articulate, right?

In fact, I can easily define and articulate what International-law-based-order is, I can bring up the UN charter, which all UN member have signed and ratified, I dont need to refer to a book written by a midget jew hired by the banker families to perform psydo politics.

- Those who have studied International law and relations (which I have, as a minor subject) had the UN charter as part of our curriculum - I cannot recall any book written by a midget jew who barely grasped the English language as part of our program.

Dont let me hang waiting for your answer too long though
