China hit back US State Secretary Mike Pompeo over his claims that the coronavirus originated in a lab in Wuhan, saying he “doesn't have any” evidence, AFP reported.
“I think this matter should be handed to scientists and medical professionals, and not politicians who lie for their own domestic political ends,” said foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying at a regular press briefing.
“Pompeo repeatedly spoke up but he cannot present any evidence. How can he? Because he doesn't have any,” she said.
