The time has come to respond to China: the US Secretary of State

Washington, July 17, 2020, Friday

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has once again launched a literal attack on China.

"The time has come for the world to respond to the challenges posed by the Chinese Communist Party," he told a news channel. "The United States has long ignored these challenges, and other countries may have done the same." The time has come to fix it. For all the countries in the world that believe in democracy, China needs to respond.

Pompeo said that China has taken advantage of the neglect by the United States, but now President Trump believes that this should be stopped.

Asked if China had not provided timely information to the world about the corona virus, Pompeo said that not only China but also the World Health Organization had done the same.
