Chinese Government permitted citizens to travel outside the country
The Chinese Government permitted citizens to travel outside the country despite knowing the possibility of the transmission of the deadly virus, as the US Secretary purported, saying that the President of the United States Donald Trump will determine the future line of action on punishing China. Pompeo's remarks came the next day after Trump said that he will not like to talk to his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping at this moment, conveying his annoyance at Beijing's handling of the coronavirus outbreak which has spread across the whole world, killing over 315000 people. The US, the most shattered country due to the pandemic, has shown vexation over China's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic which has been the reason behind 88000+ deaths in America alone. The President of the States expressed his intention to "cut off the whole relationship" with China. Trump is staunchly trying to press China to agree with their guilt and allow an inquiry into the origin of the virus, including a serious allegation that came up from a lab in Wuhan. "Those are the kinds of decisions that, as you stare at them, it is unambiguous that they created increased risk, that people were still traveling around the world while the Chinese Communist Party knew of the risk of transmission, it was still allowing people to travel outside of China while they had locked down a major city inside of their own country," Pompeo told Breitbart News Network and satellite radio station SiriusXM Patriot in an interview.

Pompeo said that had China made a "different set of decisions" at the front end, there would have been more time for the entire world- not just the US- but the entire world to prepare and react to the pandemic that has now spread all across the globe decisions correctly at the front, then there has more time for the whole world -including the US of course, to prepare and react to the pandemic that has been a terror all across the planet. Pompeo said, "We know that in December at least, maybe earlier, the Chinese Communist Party came to understand the threat that was presented. And then we watched their actions " I've talked about some of them " denying information to the world. We then saw that when the United States made the decision when President Trump decided to close off travel between the United States and China, we saw China squawk at that, saying you shouldn't be doing that. Even though they had locked down Wuhan, they had not locked down travel all across the world." Dodging the question of penalizing China, Pompeo left it to Trump to decide soon. "I don't want to get out in front of what President Trump will ultimately decide, but I think we all know in this administration that we have to make sure that something like this can never happen again. That means deterrence. That means setting up processes. The President's already stopped funding to the WHO so that we can evaluate that and figure out which pieces of the WHO might work and which pieces don't so that we can deliver good outcomes and keep Americans safe and make sure this doesn't happen again. Then there'll come a time, there will come a day when we will evaluate what it is needed to be done to convince the Chinese Communist Party that there are real costs - real costs - connected to this kind of misbehavior. We see this all the time inside the United States but around the world too. We have to hold nations accountable. We have to hold nations accountable for the things and actions that they undertake which create risk and, in this case, created an enormous loss of life here in the US. President Trump is committed to doing that. The precise mechanisms that we will choose, I want to make sure that he gets the chance to get fully briefed and make those decisions," he said.
