Is London silent on lab leak of COVID19 so as not to upset China?
Firstpost“It is important that there is some transparency, whether it be someone from MI5 or MI6 or whether it be a minister, and I think it would be beneficial to set out some of the intelligence on what they feel happened,” says Tory MP London: British intelligence officers came under pressure on Wednesday to divulge information regarding Covid-19’s origins and end the “conspiracy of silence” in the UK. A day prior to the FBI claim, the US envoy to China urged China to “be more honest” regarding Covid’s ancestry. WHO investigation on COVID 19 The lab leak hypothesis was deemed to be “extremely unlikely” by a joint investigation by China and the World Health Organization in 2021. However, after the WHO investigation received harsh criticism, the organization’s director-general called for a new investigation, stating that “all theories remain open and require further study.” Rishi Sunak on COVID 19’s origination When asked for a reaction on the controversy, a spokesperson for the the UK PM Rishi Sunak refused to agree on the US government’s “formal conclusion” saying Covid started with a leak from a Chinese lab.
