US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo reportedly claimed that the head of the World Health Organisation, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, had been secretly "bought" by China, in comments to UK politicians.
Pompeo, who is visiting the UK this week, reportedly made the remarks in a private meeting with British members of Parliament in London on Tuesday, according to the The Daily Telegraph, Sydney Morning Herald and The Guardian.
Pompeo said that he had seen US intelligence showing Ghebreyesus was "bought by the Chinese government" in a deal to secure the job.
Pompeo reportedly said: "When push came to shove, when it really mattered to us, when there was a pandemic in China, Dr Tedros who was hook line and sinker bought by the Chinese government and I can't say more but I can tell you I'm saying this on informed intelligence.

Hey Pompousasseo, whatever China or the World Health Organization may or may not have done does not excuse the ineptitude of you and the hair fuehrer when it comes to COVID-19.

(82,849 posts)Hasn't been so very long ago that Trump said he trusted Putin over the findings and conclusions of 17 U.S. intelligence agencies. Why does Pompeo and the administration believe this intelligence report, but not the intelligence that said Russia had interfered in the 2016 election?
