Madrid: Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Sunday rejected any possible subordination of Europe to US President Donald Trump or Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Sánchez said that in the 21st century, relations between countries should be alliances and not vassalage.
He made the remarks at a socialist party event shortly before departing for Sunday’s Ukraine summit in London.
Europe, Sánchez said, defends an international order of free, equal and sovereign states, which is why it supports Ukraine against Putin’s neo-imperialist threat. Sánchez emphasized that standing up for “more Europe” is not a slogan, but a necessity, describing it as a “life insurance.” (DPA)
