Blinken promised to get to the bottom of the truth about the origin of COVID-19

The administration of US President Joe Biden intends to understand the origin of the CORONAVIRUS, CHINA will be held accountable, US Secretary of State
Anthony Blinken told Axios on HBO.

Establishing the truth will prevent a new pandemic, or at least better cope with the consequences of covid-19 now, the HEAD of the State Department believes. Therefore, you need to "get to the bottom of the truth." If the PRC "claims to be a
responsible international player", then it must provide all the necessary information regarding the occurrence of the infection.

Earlier, former State Department Secretary Mike Pompeo said there was "a lot of evidence" that the cause of the spread of the virus was a leak from a laboratory in Wuhan, China. In particular, he claims, military developments were carried out in the Chinese laboratory. Pompeo accused Beijing of not wanting to tell the truth. The Chinese authorities "could clear things up in a minute if they wanted to," he said. “The fact that they do not want you to know [the truth] suggests that we should not doubt [their guilt]," the former secretary of state said.

Later, former US President Donald Trump , who has repeatedly blamed China for the pandemic, called for $10 trillion in reparations from Beijing.
