Taking the Initiative: A dialogue with Kostas Gouliamos

The European Union should develop a more independent perception towards China and adopt pragmatic China policy to jointly build a stable and trustworthy system of multilateralism, said Kostas Gouliamos, former rector of the European University Cyprus (EUC), when sharing his views on the three global initiatives proposed by China.

China has proposed the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative and the Global Civilization Initiative to promote growth and cultural enrichment.

To explore these initiatives and determine what they will mean for the future, China Daily website and the China Watch Institute present the interview series "Taking the Initiative", featuring top thinkers who will share their views on the subject.
