Washington: Andrew Bromberg, the US ambassador to the United Nations, said Washington welcomed the WHO’s probe into the origins of the novel coronavirus in China.
“We view the scientific investigation as a necessary step to having a complete and transparent understanding of how this virus has spread throughout the world,” he told reporters.
The United States, the WHO’s largest donor, this week notified the agency that it was withdrawing in a year’s time after accusing it of being too close to China and not doing enough to question Beijing’s actions at the start of the crisis.
