[국제]America Can’t Believe WHO Research

[앵커]

When a team of experts from the World Health Organization announced that Wuhan might not be the source of Corona 19, the United States responded that they would not believe it.

However, China said it was the United States’ turn and responded immediately.

The White House drew a line saying that the United States did not participate in the investigation by the WHO expert team on their visit to Wuhan.

Since we have raised concerns about the transparency of our investigation from the beginning, we can only judge by looking at the report.

[젠 사키 / 미국 백악관 대변인 : 우리는 이번 조사의 진행에 직접 관여하지 않았습니다. 거듭 말씀드리지만 조사 결과를 자세히 검토해 볼 수 있기를 기대하고 있습니다.]

The US State Department also said that if a team of experts publishes the report, it will analyze it and draw conclusions independently.

They expressed their disbelief that the investigation schedule was arranged in consultation with China and carried out in private.

It is a position in which they cannot believe the announcement by the expert team that there is no evidence that the origin of Corona 19 is Wuhan.

[네드 프라이스 / 미국 국무부 대변인 : 코로나 바이러스가 (우한이 아닌) 다른 곳에서 시작됐다고 말할 사람은, 합리적인 사람 가운데는 없다고 생각합니다.]

The investigation of the WHO team of experts is practically hand in hand with China.

The Wuhan Virus Research Institute denied the leak, admitting that low-temperature food could be a source of infection.

It was also announced that the animal that transmitted the coronavirus to humans could have come from abroad.

[피터 벤 엠바렉 / WHO 전문가팀 발표자 : 어떤 (숙주) 동물이든 아주 길고 복잡한 경로를 거쳐, 국경을 넘는 것까지 포함해, 화난 수산시장에 도달했을 것입니다.]

China did not respond to the possibility that the experts would revisit Wuhan.

Instead, the United States also called for an investigation, saying the timing of the first confirmed case would precede the official announcement.

[왕원빈 / 중국 외교부 대변인 : 미국도 중국처럼 개방적이고 투명한 태도로 WHO 전문가들을 초청해 코로나19의 기원을 찾는 연구를 하기 바랍니다.]

Some Chinese government outlets have argued that Southeast Asia, near China, should be investigated.

Given that the World Health Organization expert team’s visit to Wuhan did, in effect, give China an indulgence, there are also signs that the investigation into the origin of Corona 19 will expand to other countries.
