Paris (France) – In an interview with Financial Times, French President Emmanuel Macron questioned China’s handling of the coronavirus outbreak. Macron said it is ‘naive’ to say that China dealt better with coronavirus.
On being asked whether China’s authoritarian response to control the coronavirus outbreak has exposed the weakness of western countries, Emmanuel Macron said, “Given these differences, the choices made and what China is today, which I respect, let’s not be so naive as to say it’s been much better at handling this”.
France has reported 147,091 coronavirus cases and 17,941 deaths so far.
