Spreading supply chains across multiple countries to achieve redundancy and avoid single points of failure would make them more global, not less.
I agree it's a good idea but we should be clear that we are talking about making things more global and more interdependent.
We should also avoid the impression that everyone depends entirely on China -- a lot of big companies already have global supply chains with some redundancy.
In any case, global supply chains can't withstand a global pandemic that is causing business to slow down in every major country in the world.
