This is a very interesting BBC HardTalk interview with China’s Ambassador to the UK, Liu Xiaoming. He not only insists that coronavirus didn’t come from China but suggests that it was merely discovered in Wuhan. In his view, there has been no cover-up and China is as big a victim of the pandemic as any.
We have to hand it to Ambassador Liu for being so polished in his responses. No flinching. No discomfort. Perfect poker face. Exceptional media training. Imagine how many more senior Chinese officials are out there pouring honey into the ears of global politicians.
