European Union leaders called for an unfettered investigation into the origins of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus on June 10, which they said is necessary to draw the “right lessons” from the pandemic.

“There is this horrible pandemic, a global pandemic. We have to know where did it come from in order to draw the right lessons and to develop the right tools to make sure that this will never happen again,” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said at a news conference in Brussels.
