Donald Trump has claimed that China’s handling of the coronavirus is proof that Beijing “will do anything they can” to make him lose his re-election bid in November.
In an interview with Reuters, he said he was looking at different options in terms of consequences for Beijing over the virus.
“I can do a lot”, - said the President.
He increasingly blamed China for the pandemic and once again said that Beijing should have let the world know about COVID-19 much sooner. He also speculated about retaliation: “There are many things I can do. We’re looking for what happened”.
