The COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns have created health and economic crises, leading to unprecedented disruption to world trade and supply chains. The COVID-19 shows diverse impacts on different economies and markets that suffer and recover at different rates and degrees. This research aims to evaluate the strengths and vulnerabilities of international trade networks (ITNs) in the current crisis to evaluate global production resilience and prepare for the future crisis. We applied a series of complex network analysis approaches on the monthly ITNs for the pre- and post- COVID-19 outbreak period. The overall findings elicit the hidden spatio-temporal trading disruption, development, and resilience due to the adverse impact of COVID-19 pandemic.
