| Summary: | This paper examines the tensions between the governments of the United States and the People’s Republic of China concerning the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020. It argues that the Trump administration abandoned the health commitments of a grand power to emphasize conflict with China, a country attempting to improve its relative position in the current global governance regime. Nevertheless, it is not reasonable to expect China to satisfactorily fulfill the vacuum left by the United States in the short term; therefore, the collaboration between the most prominent actors in the international system is still needed to overcome the crisis. |
