As China Vows to Retaliate If Blamed for Wuhan Lab Leak, Biden Quietly Reverses Major Trump Policy
by Kyle Becker
China is definitely not guilty. It is so not guilty of performing gain-of-function research on a novel coronavirus at the Wuhan Institute of Virology and leaking it around the world that it is now issuing the threatening statement: Blame us for the Wuhan lab leak and we will retaliate.
In case you aren’t picking up on the sarcasm, that is the message being issued out of Beijing on Wednesday ahead of a U.S. intelligence report on the origins of SARS-CoV-2 that has only thus far been described as “inconclusive.”
“China vowed to retaliate against those questioning whether the virus escaped from its labs, days before the U.S. plans to release the findings,” Bloomberg reported.
The warning comes amidst Vice President Kamala Harris’s foreign trip to southeast Asia. While in Vietnam, Harris addressed China’s rising belligerence and its overtures towards Taiwan, which the communist Chinese consider to be their territory.
“Beijing’s actions continue to undermine the rules-based order and threaten the sovereignty of nations,” Harris said.
Meanwhile, the U.S. is condemning China with one side of its mouth and restoring technologically sensitive licensing with the other.
