The UK, New Zealand and Japan are among 62 nations that have agreed to support a motion calling for an independent inquiry into the origin of the coronavirus when the World Health Assembly meets on 18 May. Australia has led the push for an inquiry into the pandemic, and Foreign Minister Marise Payne stresses that international collaboration is needed so the world can prevent or respond to future pandemics. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump has indicated that the US may be prepared to restore its funding for the World Health Organization, although only the same amount of money that China contributes.
