Donald Trump claims he has seen evidence the novel coronavirus originated in a Wuhan laboratory.
Speaking at a White House news conference, the US president said China either could not stop the spread of the virus, or let it spread.
Trump said he feels confident the virus came from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, adding that US authorities were “looking at it very, very strongly”.
“We’re going to see where it is – we’re going to see where it comes from,” he said, “There’s a lot of theories.”
“China might even tell us,” he added.
And asked a few minutes later what gave him such confidence, he said: “I can’t tell you that. I’m not allowed to tell you that.”
