A Greek expert works during a joint preservation work on fossilized dinosaur footprints between China and Greece at a geological park in Yanqing of Beijing, capital of China, May 24, 2018. Greece's National Museum of Contemporary Art (EMST) in Athens has been building new bridges of intercultural dialogue with China as part of a wider Sino-Greek effort to bring the two countries and peoples closer, EMST's Director Katerina Koskina told Xinhua in a recent interview. "China and Greece are both ancient countries, have huge civilizations behind them, and you can relate to that. As far as I can tell from my experience in Beijing, the Chinese have a deep respect and admiration for the Greek civilization and I think that works both ways. It is the same for Greeks too," she underlined. She also expressed hope that ties between Greece and China in the field of art could deepen in the future. (Xinhua/Li Ran)
