Trump Warns China of Consequences because of COVID-19

Beijing must respond if it knowingly allowed an outbreak of coronavirus, the American president stressed. China may face consequences if it is proved that it deliberately allowed an outbreak of coronavirus. This was announced on Saturday, April 18, at a briefing in the White House by US President Donald Trump. "We are conducting an investigation, we will see how the investigation goes. <...> If this is intentional, there must be consequences. <...> The question is whether it was a mistake that got out of control, or was it done deliberately," the American leader said. According to him, before the events, relations between Washington and Beijing were constructive. "We entered into a trade agreement, China purchases products from our farmers for $ 250 billion, the relationship was good when we were signing that. Am I angry at China? Perhaps yes," Trump pointed out.
