Secretary of State Mike Pompeo told reporters that the other member nations of the G7 fully understood that China was launching a categorically false propaganda campaign claiming that the U.S. Military was responsible for bringing the coronavirus to China.
“We’ve wanted to work with the Chinese Communist Party throughout this crisis – this crisis that began in Wuhan, China,” Pompeo said. “We tried – you’ll remember – from the opening days to get our scientists, our experts on the ground there so that we could begin to assist in the global response to what began there in China, but we weren’t able to do that. The Chinese Communist Party wouldn’t permit that to happen.”
“You’ll recall, too, at the beginning of this, when it was clear that this was an issue, China knew about it, they were the first country to know about the risk to the world from this virus, and they repeatedly delayed sharing that information with the globe,” Pompeo continued, later adding, “There was a lot of discussion today amongst the G7 about the intentional disinformation campaign that China has been and continues to be engaged in.

Verbally only should they be held accountable because we need each other.When this is all over everything needs to get back in full swing, and having China on board will help until we can start manufacturing what they have been sending us for decades.
ReplyDeleteYeah right, like how. That's like saying a tornado destroyed a town. But we're going to hold it responsible. It's China for God sake.
ReplyDeleteMore Administration propaganda.

ReplyDelete"..Yeah right, like how."
Sit back and watch, pal. China's economy is very fragile right now. We have many ways to apply pressure. They need us very badly, and Mr. Trump was supposed to be returning Mr. Xi's call last night.
We will see how that all plays out.
Oooh, returning a call. I bet Hop Sing is shaking in his flip flops. Give me a break.
DeleteBetter job than Obama. I use to cringe when I heard Obama and Carey where visiting a foreign country because I could see them reaching into their pockets and handing out money "please be my friend". So don't even think Trump is afraid 8f China.
DeletePlease keep up. This conversation is about China being scared of Trump.
DeleteWe all would like to think our country can take it to whomever screws with us. Fact of the matter is our country is entwined with other countries as far as economy goes. A sanction here and a sanction there only goes so far. Globally we still have to play the game to an extent. You have to remember fentynal pretty much started in China. No big deal to them or repercussions. Same with this. They'll keep on being a big global producer as usual. So to pump your chest out and say, you'll see, they're gonna pay. That's like busting a ship with 10 tons of cocaine, and saying, boy we really crippled the cartels with that one. Please.
ReplyDeleteYou think nothing will ever change - well - did you for one moment ever think the US would just down in just a few days. I believe anything can happen.
DeleteHe who holds the gold( China if you do not know ) wins!
ReplyDeleteIt was a PAYBACK for the New Trade Deal they had to make !!!
ReplyDeleteDemocrats LOVE IT because it has interrupted Trumps' BIG WIN 2020
They probably made a DEAL with China to put it out , because they need
a Big Distraction to take the Heat off of themselves !!!!
& Now they will act like they CARE for you to make you think they are Ok !!!
Trump is going to win 2020 - if for no other reason than the excellent way he is handling the virus.
DeleteLove your humor!
DeleteIt takes years of open minded research to educate one’s self about the criminal enterprise called the US Government. Americans know nothing about history because we have been told lies and half truths.
ReplyDeleteEducate yourself or continue to live in the darkness of tyranny
Sounds like you are having a difficult time with the darkness of tyranny. If you thing the US Government is a criminal Enterprise I suggest you go to other countries and you will then learn the darkness of tyranny. I'll buy you a one way ticket to Africa, Russia, Italy, - list go on. Then come back with your new found education. Only that ticket is on you. 😂 STOP insulting Americans💢
ReplyDelete12:55 you sir are an idiot! every government since the dawn of time, has worried about two things, how to stay in power and how to keep the masses in check. Question is under which governments rules you would like to live under? ours or theirs? you are free to leave and go there and live according to your wishes I'll keep my hard won american freedoms and continue to fight for them no matter who tries to limit them. is our government perfect? are we perfect? no, but it's the best system going right now on this blue marble.
ReplyDeleteSemper fi!
Marines are part of the tyranny.
DeleteTry Smedley Butler
Thank you
This has not just happened to the US. Nations around the world will ban together and figure out how to go about making China redeem itself.
ReplyDeleteGeezus Christ, are you on the same planet as the rest of us?
