Chinese President Xi Jinping tells the UN he has no intention of fighting a new Cold War, while US President Donald Trump uses his speech to call on the body to use their powers to hold China accountable for 'plague'.

President Donald Trump demanded that the United Nations hold China accountable for the coronavirus pandemic as he defends his own handling of COVID-19 in America, where the death toll has surpassed 200,000.

While Mr Trump blames China, he has been harshly criticised for his administration's track record in battling coronavirus, which is now a major issue in his re-election bid. But Mr Trump pointed to the virus' origins in China and says the Chinese Government acted irresponsibly in allowing the virus to spread.China says it has no intention to fight a new Cold War

Why blaming Trump? Did the virus started in the US? Does the US has a revolting wet Mkt? Does the US has a peasant leader that allows the wet Mkt? I lost 2 family members by COVID and i wonder what if the wet Mkt didn’t exist ? Would they still be alive?

Can they hold Trump accountable for the 200000 deaths due to gross negligence? Just asking...

We gonna hold Trump accountable for the 200,000 deaths he could’ve avoided?

America is the only country to slaughter people in mass using chemical weapons and not be punished. Only America is allowed to get away with dirty deeds and dirty tricks only Russia and China are bad? Locally we have incompetent thugs in Vic and QLD in power “using the virus”

Did the Virus originate from China Yes. Is China responsible for the American response to it? NO FRIGGIN WAY. The response is simply due to the fact that Trump and his cronies are totally incompetent, and Trump has to disprove the science to appease his Christian fanbase.

I think the UN should hold America and trump accountable

Clearly, the virus had been discovered in Spain and the US in 2019. The US continues to deny it. For what it is, the world has to ban US travelers for the time being. They are most likely to carry the virus and able to spread to the world.

Regardless of where the virus is coming from, a government is responsible to protect its nation and people. The US current government has failed in every aspect, except its blame games. They have no plan to stop and seeing people dying each day. It is a shit fest.

The definition of hypocrisy right there.

The world's two largest economies both run by egotistical low life.

China virus

Extremely important to find the origin of this virus. More needs to be looked into China's so called disgusting 'wet markets '. If these markets aren't properly regulated it will happen again. We live in a different world to 100 yrs ago with high velocity trade and transport! 🗺

Anybody but him!

Talks about China not grounding flights well Australia had to ground flights from US due to spread. No cases from China plenty from US auspol

China & The W H O should pay compensation C-Virus should have never happened & Could've been stopped at the source

Trump you also should be held accountable you did nothing to help the people in America.

And the American people should hold Trump accountable. VoteBlue

Why won't the CCP give answers? Why won't they allow an independent review. The millions of people who have lost family members deserve it at least.

Trump is one temper tantrum away from withdrawing the US from the UN, that can only be a good thing, .... for the rest of the planet.

Smart and intelligent move. But can UN bark on China?

Like that going to happen anytime soon. Trump can't blame himself what happen to the country he runs. He had a chance to slow the virus down and keep it down.

i'm still laughing... hahaha and everything else too

Trump claim makes Q&A panel gaspA reduced Q&A audience let out an audible gasp and chuckle in response to a staunch Donald Trump supporter heaping praise on the United States president’s handling of the coronavirus. Australian media (as opposed to 'news media') has learned than piling hate on America & its President garners clicks & views - and to hell with whether they're being fair or helpful to society.

Trump could have the decency to wait until after the RBG funeral. Indecent haste to plant a right-winger in position for life. Orange shitgibbon Does Shitty Thing They would do the same 😂.
