Donald Trump says US report on China and origin of coronavirus will be ‘conclusive’

United States President Donald Trump says a report into the origins of the coronavirus outbreak will reveal what happened in China to cause the pandemic.

Key points:

  • Donald Trump said China is embarrassed by the health crisis
  • He said there was no doubt the coronavirus originated in China
  • The interview was part of a virtual town hall hosted by Fox News

Mr Trump held a virtual town hall meeting televised by American broadcaster Fox News, captured in front of the Lincoln Memorial on Sunday, local time.

He answered a range of questions, mainly focused on the coronavirus pandemic, and the country’s trade with China.

During the broadcast, the President said a report would soon be published by the US to reveal what they believe was the cause of the global health crisis.

“We’re going to be giving a very strong report as to exactly what we think happened. And I think it will be very conclusive,” he said.

“Personally, I think they made a horrible mistake, and they didn’t want to admit it.”
