It is proof that, <strong>while most European countries continue to defer to the United States, Spain is openly aligning itself with China. This is a betrayal of its traditional alliances<\/strong>, but it is a bold and intelligent one. A great decision.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>It is a betrayal by S\u00e1nchez&#8217;s government that all Spaniards will ultimately pay for<\/strong>, due to the consequences of losing the trust of our greatest strategic ally, the United States, by moving closer to the world&#8217;s largest dictatorship. <strong>As if S\u00e1nchez hadn&#8217;t already tarnished his country&#8217;s name enough<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/world.people.com.cn\/n1\/2025\/1111\/c1002-40600960.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">yesterday the official newspaper of the CPC published an article referring to Spain as the &#8220;China of Europe&#8221;<\/a>, citing cultural and gastronomic reasons, and finally pointing out &#8220;<strong>the strategic orientation of the leaders of both countries<\/strong>&#8220;, commenting as follows:<\/p>\n<blockquote wp_automatic_readability=\"9\">\n<p>&#8220;<strong>In 2018, both countries issued a joint declaration on strengthening their comprehensive strategic partnership in the new era<\/strong>, promoting further development of bilateral relations and generating greater benefits for the people of both countries.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>In 2018, S\u00e1nchez came to power.<\/strong> Thus, one of the first things he did was to reach out to communist China. The dictatorship adds: &#8220;<strong>China and Spain share similar ideals on many highly relevant international issues.<\/strong>&#8221; It is not Spain that shares these ideals: it is a minority government that remains in power after losing the last general election two years ago and despite no longer having the parliamentary majority that granted S\u00e1nchez reelection.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for S\u00e1nchez&#8217;s rapprochement with the Beijing dictatorship is obvious: <strong>S\u00e1nchez is a socialist and governs with the communists of Sumar, which is why he&#8217;s cozying up to a communist regime. The ideological affinities are clear<\/strong>, as clear as his contempt for the West, for democracy, and for human rights. Let&#8217;s remember, in case anyone has forgotten, that <strong>communist China is the main ally of Vladimir Putin&#8217;s dictatorship<\/strong>, which has been massacring Ukrainian civilians for years in a war of aggression that seriously jeopardizes the peace and security of Europe. <strong>With this alliance, S\u00e1nchez is discrediting Spain<\/strong> and positioning it as the best friend of a regime that has governed China since 1949 without free elections and violating human rights. <strong>And then he&#8217;ll still come along and warn us against the &#8220;far-right&#8221;&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Photo: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lamoncloa.gob.es\/presidente\/actividades\/Paginas\/2023\/310323-sanchez-comparecencia-china-pekin.aspx\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">La Moncloa<\/a>.
