The coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) constitutes a real threat to the world, its consequences are disrupting the world order, brutally placed in against a reality with multiple problems. The crisis is at the same time a window of opportunity for the international community to reinforce multilateralism by establishing a common strategy for the health emergency. However, the tensions between the United States and China and the American economic war against the European Union are factors, which hamper the efforts established in this way. This article will highlight the dynamic correlation between the concept of « health security » and the geopolitical and economic challenges.
