Biden administration faces increasing pressure to help lower-income nations access much-needed coronavirus jabs.
The top United States trade representative will begin discussions with the World Trade Organization (WTO) about how to more widely distribute COVID-19 vaccines, as the country faces increasing pressure to help other nations get much-needed jabs. White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain said on Sunday that US Trade Representative Katherine Tai would hold talks with the WTO “on how we can get this vaccine more widely distributed, more widely licensed, more widely shared”. “We’re going to have more to say about that in the days to come,” Klain said during an interview on the CBS News programme Face the Nation.More Related News
