Abstract

The paper analyzes the main cooperation mechanisms between China and Bulgaria. The history of the two countries’ bilateral relations follows a long tradition but in the recent years has been determined mostly by their strategic goals. Bulgaria is determined to fulfil its National development strategy and China in turn has been successfully developing the global Belt and road initiative for five years. This paper is an attempt to give some clarity about the Bulgaria-China relations and to outline ways for future cooperation and development.
