The US-China dispute

[mapuc]

(To the moderators-I fear that this dispute between these two countries will escalate and go from this dispute to crisis. If so then please replace the word dispute with the word crisis-only if it does)

I think this dispute between USA and China should have its own discussion.

Yes we will without doubt mix Wuhan-virus and American politics into this thread.

If all what I have heard and seen in the news and here on our forums-China have a lot to answer for.

Whether it came from a bat or was released by mistake.
The Chinese government held back important information and have/are refusing WHO and other virologist to enter China.

I understand why USA/Trump is angry on China.

Wish our government in Denmark and Sweden would take same standpoint.

Edit
Maybe our moderators think there's no need for this thread-please erase it, if this should be the case
End edit

This pandemic goes much further than just a dispute between China and the U.S. But I'm sure European leaders are grateful for that distraction. Personally I would really love to hear SOMETHING, ANYTHING from the E.U. leaders where they stand, what their thoughts are. So far I'll I've heard is just crickets.

Here's China's take on it. Keep in mind this accusation is directed at more than just 'Lady Liberty" I couldnt help but laugh from it, does that make a bad person?

Maybe the Eu is holding back, before there is any evidence for anything.
But as usual it is all the EU's fault.

Maybe the EU is trying to bring those numbers down, while the US are playing the blame game.

As mentioned in my first post.

Whether it came from a bat or was released by mistake

And it's here EU should be more critical towards the Chinese government.

This is something I have heard on Danish, Swedish and in German news program.

Where they have mentioned Chinese unwillingness to share important information.

The Chinese government is doing everything to prevent these information getting out of the country

Under the new policy, all academic papers on Covid-19 will be subject to extra vetting before being submitted for publication. Studies on the origin of the virus will receive extra scrutiny and must be approved by central government officials, according to the now-deleted posts.

Therefore should EU take a more critical standpoint.

Which USA have.

Forgot something. It was not my intention to derail this thread into a EU-China discussion.
I only mentioned Denmark and Sweden(EU-members) as they are taking a defensive position.

I have a bad feelings in this dispute between USA and China.

I fear that this Corona will be the thing which makes the cup being overfilled
