Peng Liyuan, spouse of Chinese President Xi Jinping, and Spain's Queen Letizia visited the Beijing Demonstration Center of Service for Persons with Disabilities on November 12, 2025, during King Felipe VI's state visit to China. The joint visit underscored bilateral commitments to social welfare and inclusive development.
The leaders observed rehabilitation programs and interacted with staff and beneficiaries. Peng emphasized China's dedication to improving accessibility, stating:
"Every individual deserves dignity and opportunities to thrive."
Queen Letizia praised China's progress, noting:
"Collaboration across nations can amplify support for vulnerable communities."
The event coincided with renewed China-Spain cultural exchanges, reflecting growing partnerships in healthcare and social innovation. Analysts suggest such high-profile engagements may influence policy frameworks ahead of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals review.
