U.S.-China tensions escalate over COVID-19 response

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is accusing China of purposely destroying early samples of the coronavirus, rather than share them with the world. "Face the Nation" moderator and CBS News senior foreign affairs correspondent Margaret Brennan joins CBSN's Reena Ninan for a closer look at the latest disagreement between the two economic powers.

Yes, because Communists have a great track record with human rights and transparency.

[brewsandbass]

They really need to say "Chinese government", and keep the people out of this.

[TheBeastMan-ntmv]

More like tensions between 🇨🇳China and the world. The whole world is upset with China.

[pvhcarlyle]

Is it just me, or does it seem like these two are trying to cover for China?!

[Akil-Kaze]

Chinese people shouldn't be blame for the acts of there government

[jejo]

China’s getting mad at us, for getting mad at them, for doing something wrong.
They’d get along great with my girlfriend.

[playahatinfool]

Can we get some grownups in the room? There’s gotta be some more qualified people to do this job

[TascoDayZ]

China: Gets mad at the U.S because the U.S got mad at them for something they did wrong.

US: “You’re lying!”
China: “No, you’re lying!”

Okay.

First it was Covid 19
then “Covid madness”
and finally the “Covid War(s)”

sigh... it saddens me when she says "the 2 world powers". the USA made China a superpower by starting trade with them in 2000 and encouraging the world to do the same. in the year 2000 china was a 3rd world country with a GDP around 1 Trillion, 20 years later their GDP is around 14T, if you can believe the numbers.
we created our destroyer in the name of profit. our politicians are ultimately to blame, but so is every citizen that has ever bought Chinese products, including myself.
im sure there will be some CCP trolls or ignorant sheep that disagree, but China is a murderous Dictatorship and its been that way since the 50's. this is nothing new, and we need to completely phase out all trade with them over the next 10 years. India can produce the cheap products the world wants, and they are our democratic ally. lets make them a superpower and stop enriching China.

Awe yes, more of the blame game, like guys seriously I’m getting bored of the same old news, like we get it they keep blaming each other. So? Like do some actual news that doesn’t involve children fighting over who did the damage here.

Here's my thoughts when our president found out in January he didn't seem to care feburary he called it a hoax and spent alot of time playing golf in March finally starts to realize its serious but spent most of the time campaigning instead finding solutions now he wants to blame China for his lack of concern

[FreedomBliss-gxiu]

It looks like I just stumbled upon Chinese state media

[chuckhennemann]

Plenty of blame to go around on both sides. China (authoritarian government) shockingly wasn't open. The US downplayed the virus and didn't prepare. Losing months of reaction time.

[irish]

hmmm They used ther same line on Australia.
I hope the US puts them in their place and the west turns it back on them

[cb]

“And what really is the end game for the US?” Framing the US as being the deceitful one? You are a disgrace.

[joshuaorozco]

So, when did reporters become experts? reporters asking questions to reports...?

[lancep]

Can we cure this stuff before we start a war over it please?

[srenghua]

How come you never mention china post genom sequence of this virus
