With COVID-19 dominating every sphere of life in recent times, political or unpolitical, it seems as though the effects of this pandemic could well be one of the shaping factors of the next decade of international relations. With China being the first place that the virus started to spread rapidly, it could be very easy for other nations to shift the blame for the scale of this crisis onto China. Will the relationship between China and Europe change after this pandemic ends? Will we start to see a cautiousness appear in the currently dependent trading relationship between these two parts of the world? In this special extra-length episode, Jake and John pose interesting questions about the future of International Relations to Dr. Scott Brown from the University of Dundee.
