Russian President
Vladimir Putin and Chinese leader
Xi Jinping on Thursday rejected as counterproductive attempts to blame
Beijing for delaying informing the world about the coronavirus, the
Kremlin said.
Putin and Xi spoke after US President Donald Trump's administration berated
China for not sharing data more quickly.
Washington is also investigating the origins of the
Coronavirus -- which has killed more than 140,000 people worldwide -- saying it doesn't rule out that the disease came from a laboratory researching bats in Wuhan, China.
