“It seems very difficult to me to find other interlocutors who can untangle this situation caused in Iran and in the Strait of Hormuz beyond China,” Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez said in Beijing after meeting with Chinese Premier Xi Jinping.
“Any effort” by China to stop the war is not only “welcome but very necessary,” the Spanish premier said.
Spain has been one of the European countries most strongly opposed to the military operations, which Sánchez openly considers “illegal.” The country has closed its airspace to US warplanes participating in the conflict and is preventing Washington from using its two bases on Spanish territory for that purpose.
