US President Donald Trump warns China will 'suffer consequences' for Covid-19
US President Donald Trump said that China will face consequences if it is found to be "responsible" for the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak.
“If it was a mistake, a mistake is a mistake. But if they (China) are found responsible for this, I mean they will have to suffer the consequences,” Reuters quoted Mr. Trump as saying at a press conference on April 18 (local time).
However, the White House owner did not clarify how the US would handle the above case.

The question now, Mr. Trump said, is whether what happened with the SARS-CoV-2 virus was a mistake that got out of control, or whether it was intentional. “There’s a big difference between those two issues,” he added.
President Trump and many senior Washington officials have recently repeatedly criticized China, claiming that the Beijing government intentionally concealed information about the Covid-19 outbreak in Wuhan city, Hubei province.
Meanwhile, the Chinese government has repeatedly denied the accusations and asserted that the country did not conceal the epidemic.
