Summary/Abstract: At the “17+1” initiative summit on 9 February, the usual “Guidelines” for upcoming cooperation were not agreed, just a plan of activities for the coming year. Moreover, some European countries were represented only at the ministerial level. This indicates growing scepticism of the initiative among some participants, mainly EU Member States. The crisis may worsen in the face of the continued lack of an attractive offer from China.
