Greed is Good- Why not call for balance trade. Spain and Europe is now a consumer entity.
Spain’s prime minister has called for Europe to forge closer ties with Beijing during Donald Trump’s assault on global trade.
Speaking after a meeting with Xi Jinping, the Chinese president, in Beijing on Friday, Pedro Sanchez said: “Spain sees China as a partner of the EU.”
Spain is seeking to position itself as a mediator between China and the EU and attract Chinese investment, effectively rejecting US warnings that a pivot to China would be “cutting your own throat”.
But tensions remain in Brussels over how approach to Beijing, which some European leaders argue is flooding the world with goods due to over-investment with manufacturing. Top EU leaders are planning a visit to the Chinese capital in July for a face-to-face summit with President Xi.
