Abstract

Such relations had to be seen in the double context: On the one hand Serbia's accession running process, with the interferences on it of China as global rising power. Beijing, with its ambitious New Silk Road project, erupt as an agent in Europe, specially in Western Balkans and quite particularly in Western Balkans 6 (next UÉs enlargement area). On the other hand, China's influence on Serbia could determine the future as a Member State of the EU as well as EU enlargement policy in the region.
