| Summary / Abstract (Note) | In the context of the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the Chinese leadership had to make major adjustments to its foreign policy. Central to it were attempts to remove the blame from China for the spread of the pandemic worldwide. Beijing's practical policy in the international arena was significantly influenced by unprecedented pressure from the Trump administration, which declared its rejection of the CPC and its domestic and foreign policy and threatened a complete break between the United States and China. Beijing's relations with Europe have become more complicated, and those with India have noticeably deteriorated. In the current situation, Beijing has confirmed a policy of close cooperation with the Russian Federation. This article examines features of China's interaction with leading international organizations in 2020. |
