US harms international cooperation on COVID-19 – Beijing

The Chinese Embassy in the United States has accused the American authorities of undermining the global fight against the coronavirus pandemic.

“What the US has done in recent years has seriously undermined international institutions, including the World Health Organization (WHO), and severely damaged international cooperation on COVID-19”, – the embassy said.

However, representatives of the diplomatic mission stressed that Beijing welcomes the return of the United States to WHO and expressed hope for Washington’s contribution to international cooperation against the coronavirus pandemic.
