Who needs the U.S.? If push comes to shove, the rest of the world will just pass us by.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez made his way to Asia for a diplomatic trip in a recent push considering options away from the United States after President Donald Trump’s tariffs on the European Union went into effect.

…

Sánchez landed in Hanoi, Vietnam on Wednesday, where he will meet To Lam. On Thursday, he will meet top business leaders to replenish commercial ties between Vietnam and Spain.

…

Sánchez is then scheduled to head over to China on Friday to meet President Xi Jinping and other Chinese investors, marking his third visit in two years.

…

Sánchez is the first EU leader to strengthen ties with China in a move that could encourage the rest of Europe to follow suit.
