China responds to Trump: We have no intention to interfere in U.S. elections

China's Foreign Ministry has firmly rejected accusations of interfering in U.S. elections, stating that such claims are "completely unfounded" and that Beijing has no interest or intention in meddling with the U.S. electoral process. The ministry reiterated China's principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries.

“

China has no interest or intention to interfere in the U.S. elections.

These statements come in response to recent allegations made by Donald Trump, who accused China of engaging in activities aimed at undermining the U.S. election system since the 2020 elections. Trump claimed that China had perpetrated the "largest election data breach in history," involving the illicit acquisition of files belonging to approximately 220 million American voters. He further alleged that Beijing sought to weaken his chances of winning in 2020, erode public trust, and influence U.S. media.

“

The accusations are completely unfounded.

The ministry also addressed new U.S. visa restrictions imposed on Chinese citizens, criticizing the measures as discriminatory and detrimental to relations between the two peoples. China urged Washington to withdraw the policy promptly and reserved the right to implement reciprocal retaliatory measures if the U.S. proceeds with its actions.

“

China adheres to the principle of not interfering in the internal affairs of other countries.

The exchange of accusations and criticisms adds another layer to the existing tensions between the U.S. and China, which span multiple areas including trade, technology, cybersecurity, and Taiwan. Despite efforts to maintain political dialogue channels, the overall tension between Washington and Beijing continues to escalate.

“

China's new visa restrictions on Chinese citizens are discriminatory and do not serve to improve relations between the peoples of the two countries.
