GENEVA (AN) — World Health Organization Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on Thursday denounced the top U.S. diplomat's allegations that he is subservient to the Chinese government's demands and has helped to cover up Beijing's handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
The allegations leveled against him by U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo are "untrue and unacceptable," said Tedros, a politician and public health expert who headed Ethiopia’s foreign affairs and health ministries and took over the United Nations health agency in 2017.
