Vietnam is one of few nations expecting positive GDP growth in 2020. Given its apt handling of COVID-19 and ongoing US-China tensions, the country is now well placed to lead Southeast Asia’s economic recovery.

A Biden win in November does not bode well for US-Russia relations.

A reset of the US-China bilateral relationship could be a step too far, even for the self-styled ‘back-to-normal’ candidate.

Here’s hoping that Joe Biden’s “return to normalcy” won’t drag US foreign policy back into antiquated strategic thinking that desperately needs an overhaul.
