BEIJING (Xinhua): China on Wednesday (May 20) urged the United States to commit to defeating the Covid-19 pandemic at an early date, instead of issuing an "ultimatum" to the international organisation that leads the fight against the pandemic.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian made the remarks at a press conference when asked to comment on the response of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, the Spokesperson for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy at the European Commission and Russia's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Office in Geneva to the letter published on Twitter by US President Donald Trump.
