China Calls Midterm Elections US Internal Affair, Vows to Implement Trump-Xi Consensus

The Chinese Foreign Ministry stated that the US midterm elections are an internal affair, expressing willingness to implement the consensus between the two leaders and build a constructive strategic relationship. Spokesperson Mao Ning made the remarks during a press briefing on Wednesday. Mao Ning said China is willing to work with the US to maintain communication, properly handle differences, and expand cooperation based on mutual respect, fairness, and reciprocity. She declined to comment on the election results themselves, emphasizing China's focus on bilateral relations. US media projected the Democratic Party to win a landslide victory, potentially regaining control of both the Senate and House of Representatives.
