WHO head accuses Taiwan of racist attack, blames Taiwan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs of being complicit

In response to withering criticism over his questionable handling of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the World Health Organization (WHO) head lashed out at Taiwan for "racist attacks" and accused Taiwan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) of being complicit.

During a press conference on Wednesday (April 8), a reporter asked WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom whether it was more difficult to operate during the pandemic with his moral authority eroded by criticism from world leaders such as President Donald Trump. Tedros responded by claiming that he had been assailed by racist attacks and death threats over the past three months.

He said that some had called him a "negro" and he claimed, "Three months ago this attack came from Taiwan." With a stern expression on his face, Tedros then said, "We need to be honest, I will be straight today, from Taiwan."

"And Taiwan, the Foreign Ministry also, they know the campaign. They didn't disassociate themselves," claimed Tedros. He went on to allege that MOFA "even started criticizing me in the middle of all that insult and slur, but I didn't care. Three months."

The US media will not cover this. They only gave air to his criticism of Trump criticizing the WHO.

He’s been caught red-handed by several nations and he’s on the attack and saying don’t attack “us”.

Maybe he should try hiring a couple of his friends to beat him up and then tie a clothesline noose around his neck. That might work. He could say Taiwan did it.

Speaking of racism, if CCV kills African Blacks at the rate it kills American Blacks, A Chinese person won’t be safe on the continent of Africa for the next 50 years.

If the personnel on board the Roosevelt were deliberately infected, this is a lot bigger than WHO...

He’s incompetent and we are racists. This play in the playbook is getting real old.

“He said that some had called him a “negro”... “

So, “Negro” is offensive.

The other “N-word” is verbotten, naturally.

“Colored Person” will get you slammed, unless you are specifically speaking of the National Association of Colored People.

Is “Black” still OK? What about “African-American”?

Ooops! He’s from Ethiopia, so he’d be “African-African”, right?

Ironically, “Person of Color” seems to be hunky-dory, last time I checked.

Deos anyone have a Menu, or a Program to guide us?

WHO’s on First?

“Good riddance to an incompetent!”

He would have to work at it in order to be incompetent.
Probably on the take.

Taiwan had 3 new cases of Coronavirus on Tuesday (I think).

As far as I’m concerned they’ve earned the right to criticize this puppet.
