“We did the right thing but we now want to get going… you’ll break the country if you don’t.”
US President Donald Trump walks across the South Lawn upon returning to the White House in Washington, DC on May 21, 2020, following a visit to a Ford plant in Michigan.
Trump, with an eye on his re-election prospects in November, made it clear he hoped more US state governors would move towards a loosening of anti-virus restrictions. “People want to be in their churches,” Trump said. “They’re so important in terms of the psyche of our country.” France, one of the countries hit hardest by the outbreak, saw its daily death toll dip to 83, providing a cause for optimism.
China has rejected that criticism, insisting it has been forthright with the world about the origins of the virus and its work to tackle its spread.
