Coronavirus in the USA: How New York deals with it – Politics

The two men, on whom how New York gets through the Corona crisis depends, can’t stand each other.

Cuomo has headed the state of New York since 2011, de Blasio has been mayor of North America’s largest metropolis since 2014, and since the administrations of state and city are closely intertwined, it is actually essential that both men work together. Often, however, their feud was more important to them.
