Either China incompetent in handling coronavirus or did it intentionally: Donald Trump

New Delhi : Issuing a fresh salvo on China, the US President Donald Trump has claimed that either the nation was incompetent in handling the situation or did it intentionally.

More than 68,000 Americans have died in the crisis and over 1.1 million people were tested positive for the COVID 19 infection. Globally, around 250,000 people have died and more than 3.5 million were affected by the contagious virus.

"Coronavirus is a terrible thing that happened to our country. It came from China, it should have been stopped on the spot in time," he said while talking to FOX News.

"They (China) chose not to do anything and it got spread across the world. This means that the country was incompetent or did not do it for a reason. And America will find out what that reason was," he added.

Donald Trump also claimed that if he had not taken measures then over 2 million Americans may had died of the disease. Now the fatalities could range between 75,000 to 100,000.

"The virus must had been contained to the origin spot. China could have seeked our help in the process, but they let the world exposed to it.

The China knew that they have a problem and looks like they were embarrassed to accept it, very embarrassed.
