Secretary of state says Beijing has a 'special obligation' to share knowledge of the illness. FMTNews Pompeo
Pompeo, like President Donald Trump, has enraged Beijing by speaking of the ‘Chinese virus’.
Pompeo – who, like President Donald Trump, has enraged Beijing by speaking of the “Chinese virus” – said Beijing had a “special obligation” to scientists due to its early knowledge of the illness.“We need to make sure that even today, the data sets that are available to every country, including data sets that are made available to the Chinese Communist Party, are made available to the whole world. It’s an imperative to keep people safe.
Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying voiced anger over Pompeo’s claim of hundreds of thousands leaving Wuhan, writing in English: “Stop lying through your teeth!” “Some people on the US side are trying to stigmatise China’s fight against the epidemic, and shift the blame onto China,” he said.Beijing’s state media took to Trump’s favourite medium of Twitter – which is largely banned in China – to taunt him with hashtags such as #TrumpSlump and #Trumpandemic.
