Jean-Jacques de Dardel, the Swiss ambassador to China, believes that in the past five years China has advanced its efforts in global governance and is now starting to offer its own input.
He sees China as an active actor on all stages that is taking a leading role in some areas of multilateral cooperation, most notably by establishing the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, proposing the Belt and Road Initiative, and hosting the BRICS Summit last month.
De Dardel first visited China in 1986, and has returned many times, giving him extensive experience of the country when he assumed his current role in early 2014.
