“There’re global challenges in Asia where the Chinese Communist Party [CCP] have broken their promises. They have broken then in Hong Kong, they have broken them in Taiwan… This Covid-19 virus that we’re all dealing with, emanated from China. We continue to call on them to be transparent and open to allow scientists and doctors to investigate. This is something that still hasn’t happened…We have to fight this global pandemic together,” she attacked China.
