You've met me at a very Chinese time in my life

Sanchez said China should take on a more substantial role with issues including climate change, security, defense ​and the fight against inequality ...

China is the greatest bully in Asia and supposedly in history worldwide. It threatens entire populations like Taiwan, Japan, Australia, and many others, sometimes Beijing's envoys issue what can only be understood as death threats against government officials (like in the case of Japan's PM). What role would China take in security and defense according to Sanchez?

China in among the country with the highest inequality globally, it's higher than in any democracies (e.g., in many European democracies inequality is by a third lower than in China), and wealth inequality has been even increasing steadily in the last decade.

Sanchez is fighting a series of corruption scandals at home that threatens his political survival while courting the largest dictatorship in history. It's really time that he follows Orban's path.

China is the greatest bully in Asia and supposedly in history worldwide.

The US is the greatest bully in the world and definitely has been for most of the last century.

The usa the biggest bully threatening the whole world and bombing schools, hospitals and cultural sites and murdering scientists.

Sanchez is respecting international laws the most in europe by standing up against the biggest settler colonial genocidal power called Israel and opposing Trump and the american empire. He is also doing a good job in improving the economy in spain

Pedro Sanchez morality is a show. As Garry Kasparov asks when commenting on the current Spanish PM, Is there a word in Spanish stronger than "hypocrisy"? Because one is badly needed for this.

Your morality is a show . He didn't wait for the united snakes failure to condemn the illegal war in Iran where dozens of schools and hospital are bombed

it’s higher than in any democracies (e.g., in many European democracies inequality is by a third lower than in China

European "democracies" have armies that are still defending their colonial interests in africa as we speak

@antisoumerde@quokk.au

This may or may not be true, but I don't see what you comment has to do with the fact that inequality in China is much higher than in democracies, and the gap has been widening in recent years.

Nobody's more blind than the ones who don't want to see.

It's easy to be rich when you looted half of the world. You sounds like an american apologist
