President Trump on Wednesday blamed China’s “incompetence” for allowing the coronavirus to spread around the world and kill more than 320,000 people.
“Some wacko in China just released a statement blaming everybody other than China for the Virus which has now killed hundreds of thousands of people. Please explain to this dope that it was the ‘incompetence of China’, and nothing else, that did this mass Worldwide killing!,” Trump wrote on Twitter.
The president didn’t name the source of the finger-pointing statement from China. But China’s foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian accused Trump of trying to make the World Health Organization a scapegoat over his “incompetent response” to the pandemic.
“The US tries to use China as an issue to shift responsibility and bargain on its international obligations to the WHO,” Zhao said in response to a letter from Trump to WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.
