ATHENS, May 10 (Xinhua) -- The China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) should become a project of new relations between the European Union (EU) and Asia, former Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou told Xinhua in a recent interview.
There is much that can be done in Europe-China cooperation, and Greece has a positive role to play, he added.
"The Belt and Road Initiative should become a project of new relations, building the new and future relations of the European Union with Asia and of course with China," he said.
Greece has a role to play, as it has "worked closely with China for many years," he stressed.
