I just got off the phone with an old roommate of mine. I won't drop titles because reference to experience and knowledge tends to upset folks, I'll just say he's spent his entire career at the US State Department doing hands-on work... And he's a bit miffed, because things are absurd, foreign-policy-wise right now.
Anyways, so I ask you all....
What about the G7? WHO? Korea? Hong Kong? China? Russia? And so on....
All sorts have things have happened in the past couple of weeks. We've been too busy burning down cities and avoiding death-by-pandemic to really notice, I suspect, but the basic trend isn't good.
