Washington-Sana

The US Department of Defense confirmed today that it does not know where the emerging Corona virus appeared and whether it was developed in a laboratory in Wuhan, in clear contrast to what President Donald Trump says.

Today, Russia quoted the head of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milli, as saying during a press conference today, in response to a question on this subject: “Does he come from the Virus Laboratory in Wuhan? Has he appeared on the animal market in Wuhan? Did it happen anywhere else? The answer to these questions is that we do not know. ”

Milli's statement comes in great contrast to what Trump and senior administration officials have said that they have harshly criticized China, accusing it of misleading the international community over the start of the virus outbreak, although the World Health Organization has repeatedly emphasized the transparency of the Chinese authorities' handling of the issue.

Trump announced last Thursday that he saw evidence to prove that the emerging corona virus came from the laboratory of the Virus Institute in Wuhan, saying that the spread of the pandemic was due to China's failure to stop it, but US intelligence and the World Health Organization confirmed that this strain has a natural origin.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo also claimed that there was "massive evidence" that the new Corona virus was descended from the Wuhan laboratory, accusing Beijing of hiding information on the outbreak of the virus that killed more than 250,000 people around the world.
