''Since 2008, the increasingly close ties
between Greece and China have caught the attention of the world media
and there has been plenty of speculation about where this ‘romance’ is
heading. At the same time, there has been no comprehensive study of the
way Greeks themselves perceive China and this evolving relationship.
Last October, the Athens-based Institute of International Economic Relations (IIER) released a detailed report aiming to provide insight into China’s image in Greece and the role of the Greek media.
The report, titled 'China’s image in Greece 2008-2018’,
is structured on three distinct levels of analysis: What do Greeks
think of China? What do they learn about China from the media? and, The
true story behind China’s image in Greece. The research required the
review of 43 surveys carried out by both foreign and Greek polling
agencies, as well as of 1,386 articles published on the web by ten Greek
newspapers and news portals. The period of time covered by the report
spans from 2008 to 2018, the rationale behind this being that China’s
presence in Greece became very visible with the concession agreement for
the port of Piraeus signed by the Greek government and the Chinese
shipping giant COSCO in 2008..''
