US intelligence has completed an investigation into the origin of a new coronavirus infection. According to Reuters, the corresponding excerpts from the US President Joe Bayiden made public on Friday on August 27.
It is noted that the Department did not come to a single opinion on the origin of the virus. “All agencies believe that two hypotheses are believable: natural contact with infected animals and an incident in the laboratory,” the document says. At the same time, American intelligence is confident that COVID-19 has not been developed as biological weapons.
The report notes that the PRC authorities did not know about the coronavirus to the outbreak of the pandemic. According to American intelligence, it is impossible to establish the exact origin of COVID-19 without cooperation from China. At the same time notes that the actions of the PRC authorities in this issue demonstrate Beijing’s uncertainty in the final results of the investigation.
