China News Service, Beijing, June 4 (Reporter Liang Xiaohui) At a regular press conference on the 4th, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin criticized the American journalist Michael Gordon who concocted the “new crown virus leaked from the Wuhan laboratory”. It was pointed out that he had used false reports to directly assist the United States in launching the Iraq war.
Earlier, Michael Gordon cited a so-called unpublished intelligence from the United States, claiming to hype up false information about the so-called “new crown virus leaked from the Wuhan laboratory” based on the information of “three Wuhan Virus Research Institute personnel are ill”.
Wang Wenbin pointed out that it was this reporter who concocted false news about Iraq’s “attempt to obtain nuclear weapons” 19 years ago by using fraudulent means, which directly helped the United States to launch the Iraq war.
Now, this same person used similar means of falsely claiming anonymous information, and once again hyped the "new crown virus leaked from the Wuhan laboratory", which has no credibility at all.
Wang Wenbin further pointed out that there are many experts in the international community who have made rational and objective voices regarding the source of the virus. For example, Dassak, a member of the International Expert Group on the Traceability of the New Coronavirus of the World Health Organization and Chairman of the "Ecological Health Alliance", was interviewed by the US media. He once said, "There is no evidence that the virus was made in a laboratory, and there is no evidence that this virus has ever appeared in a laboratory."
"We hope that those who spread the'laboratory leak theory' and the media will pay attention to and face up to these objective and rational voices." Wang Wenbin said.
