Multipolarity is probably inevitable, given current global shifts. But inviting *China* to drive it feels less like a balanced approach and more like asking the fox to guard the henhouse with extra security features. Their idea of 'order' is... specific.

It's less about *inviting* them and more about acknowledging their existing and growing economic/geopolitical weight, whether we like it or not. The world's already multipolar, Spain's just pointing out a key player.

What exactly does 'bigger role' mean? And is Spain really the one to be asking this, given their relative geopolitical weight? Seems a bit... optimistic.

Probably means they want more cheap solar panels, lol.

My friend runs an import business, and China's 'role' usually means more hoops to jump through, intellectual property headaches, and sometimes outright forced tech transfers if you want access to their market. No thanks.

Exactly. It's not benign.

Honestly, a US-centric world isn't working for everyone. Maybe this is a necessary shift to distribute power a bit more evenly.

Necessary shift to what, Chinese surveillance states dictating global norms and economic coercion? Read a history book.
