China criticizes US ahead of COVID origins report, peddles conspiracy theories
Fox News
Chinese state-owned media has pushed aggressive claims of U.S. "propaganda" aimed to "scapegoat" the communist nation ahead of a report by American intelligence agencies into the origins of COVID-19.
Initial reports were "inconclusive" on the origins of the pandemic, The Washington Post reported this week. However, the Chinese government proceeded to push out claims that the report and any subsequent revelations are part of "propaganda" by the U.S. government. "Scapegoating China cannot whitewash the US," Fu Cong, director-general of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' arms control department, said during a news briefing on Wednesday.More Related News
