EU top diplomat attacks US on pandemic
By EUobserver
EU foreign affairs chief Josep Borrell has attacked US handling of the pandemic. He said it was "weak ... and now they are seeing the consequences", but "blaming China is not the solution". The US was wrong to defund the WHO, he added. It was also unhelpful that US sanctions were stopping humanitarian supplies from getting into Iran and Venezuela, with Borrell pledging to advocate for more access.
