Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez called on the European Union to review its relationship with China amid the global turmoil sparked by the US move to set tariffs on most countries.

What US President Donald Trump is doing to global trade must push Europe to revise its willingness to find other new partners and open new markets, Sanchez said in a conversation with journalists on arriving in Vietnam for a three-day visit. The situation with the US means everybody needs to adapt, and this includes Europe changing its position toward China, but also China toward Europe, he said.
