At a Republican Party rally in the US state of North Carolina on Saturday former US President Donald Trump called on world leaders to demand China pay "reparations" to "compensate" for the damage caused by Covid, the Sunday Express reported.

In a brutal attack on China's Xi Jinping, Trump demanded a massive ten trillion dollar pay packet to cover the economic chaos covid has caused.

The former President said: “The time has come for America and the world to demand reparations and accountability from the Communist Party of China.

“We should all declare within one unified voice that China must pay, they must pay!"

He added: “In addition, all nations should work together to present China a bill for a minimum of ten trillion dollars to compensate for the damage they’ve caused.

“And that is a very low number, the damage is far, far greater than that."

The ex-President stressed: “As a first step all countries should collectively cancel all debt they owe to China as a down payment on reparations.”
