International Relations in Post-COVID-19 Era

International relations depend on several factors, not just the Coronavirus. Since the virus has hit practically the whole world, and we are still not certain when we would see the end of this phase, it is difficult to prognosticate whether its effect on international relations will be more permanent or temporary that we believe.

For years, international relations had moved to global relations rather than being based on purely domestic or national issues. We are all faced with security related global issues in the last 20 years or so, which has forced us to talk more about global solutions to global issues.
