What are you talking about This happened about a week ago. Since that time the EU has been muscled out of this so called enquiry. Not good reporting Sky.

Invasion of Iraq based on total lies, 1 million dead, pandora's box opened, no inquiry. Arming ISIS/Al-Qaeda 'moderate' rebels in Libya & Syria, half a mil dead, slave markets opened, refugee crisis created, no inquiry. And we insinuate China is incompetent & needs our wisdom.

I wonder if China will be so big, tough and threatening to Europe?

Why wouldn’t there be an inquiry 330,000 people are dead (and counting). The world economy has been decimated. People have lost jobs, houses etc. You’d be crazy not to point the finger.

the origin of the coronavirus? China. Didn’t you know that already?

COVID-19 is the new HIV: WHO | Sky News AustraliaThe World Health Organisation has warned COVID-19 could remain indefinitely saying countries may need to live with the endemic much in the same way people live with HIV.\n\nDuring their daily briefing, officials warned against any attempt to predict how long the pandemic may last.\n\nWHO Executive Director Dr Michael Ryan said countries may have to learn how to live with the virus even if a vaccine is developed. \n\n'This virus may become just another endemic virus in our communities and this virus may never go away. HIV has not gone away but we have come to terms with it,' Dr Ryan said.\n\nImage: AP\n\n Comparing COVID-19 with HIV is widely off the mark So why the hell have we shut businesses and put a million people on welfare? There still is no cure for HIV. Cures take time. The virus is fast working. Time is not on our side.

Aussies immune to 'China's secretive and creepy handling of COVID-19' | Sky News AustraliaThe latest round of “COVID numbers” released by the Lowy Institute suggesting only “68 percent of Australians feel less favourable towards China's system of Government” are surprisingly low, according to Sky News host Chris Smith.\n\nGiven China’s “blatant muzzling of free speech, it's cruel treatment of dissidents, and it's communist DNA,” the statistics should be around 98 percent,” he said. \n\nThe survey also shows Australian’s think China has outperformed America with 31 percent of people saying China has handled the outbreak very or fairly well. \n\nMr Smith said this was far too “generous a reaction, given their creepy and secretive handling of the virus from the beginning”. \n\nImage: Getty Did they accomodate for those native to the ccp Does a government system need to be favourable to foreigners? I doubt it. The point is whether their own people favour the system especially when facing this crisis. Hope Lowy institute make an US system survey under covid19 as most of Aus oversea infections come from US and EU. As apposed to honest America taking over 30days to notify the world of the American swine flu H1N1.. Or honest America lying about WMD and millions died!!!
