China News Service, Beijing, February 24 (Huang Yuqin) In response to Pompeo and others’ recent conspiracy theories about the Wuhan Institute of Virology leaking the virus, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said at a regular press conference on the 24th that Pompeo They still want to rely on anti-China to seek personal gain after leaving office and continue to kidnap Sino-US relations. This is doomed to be a waste of money.
A reporter asked a question. The Wall Street Journal published an article signed by Pompeo and Yu Maochun on the 23rd, once again hyping the conspiracy theory that the Wuhan Institute of Virology leaked the virus, and demanded that the world hold China accountable.
But we found that various unsubstantiated rumors were cited in the article, some of which have been falsified.
What is China's comment?
Wang Wenbin said that the so-called "Wuhan laboratory virus manufacturing theory" or "leakage theory" spread by Pompeo has long been publicly rejected by almost all top scientists and disease control experts in the world, and there are also many international expert groups on WHO's new coronavirus traceability research. It was clearly pointed out that the new coronavirus is extremely unlikely to come from a laboratory leak.
"Pompeo has long gone bankrupt in credibility and has become synonymous with lies. Pompeo and his like still dream of relying on anti-China for personal gain after resignation, and continue to kidnap Sino-US relations. This is destined to be a waste of money."
