Join Hudson Institute for a discussion with U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Kelly Craft and Hudson Senior Fellow Heather Nauert on the challenges and policy priorities facing the United States as the coronavirus strains geopolitical tensions.

From the lack of transparency and corruption in the Chinese Communist Party to the inordinate impact of the coronavirus on vulnerable populations and the growing instability in Iran, Syria, and Venezuela, the pandemic has accelerated geopolitical changes that will have short- and long-term implications for U.S. policy. Ambassador Craft will forecast the road ahead for U.S. foreign policy.
