BEIJING, April 28, 2020 (BSS/AFP) – Beijing has accused US politicians of
“telling barefaced lies” over the coronavirus pandemic that has swept the
globe, after President Donald Trump threatened to seek damages from China for
the outbreak.

“They have only one objective: shirk their responsibility for their own
poor epidemic prevention and control measures, and divert public attention,”
said foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang at a press briefing Tuesday.
