China's policy toward the US is consistent, and it will continue to handle China-US relations based on the principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said in response to the potential impact of the US presidential election result on bilateral relations.
In response to another question related to the election result and potential additional US tariffs on Chinese goods, Mao said the US presidential election is an internal affair of the US. We respect the choice of the American people. As for the tariffs, we do not answer hypothetical question.
Republican candidate Donald Trump has declared victory early Wednesday in the 2024 US presidential election, according to Xinhua.
Trump told the audience at his election night party early on Wednesday that it was "time to unite" as a country, the Associated Press (AP) reported.
"It's time to put the divisions of the past four years behind us," Trump said. "It's time to unite."
As of press time, Donald Trump has 267 of the 270 electoral votes needed to win the White House and is leading in key races left to be called, including Michigan and Wisconsin, according to the AP.
First of all, whoever enters the White House in next four years needs to bear in mind that China and the US are the major powers and top two economies in the world, so they have significant roles to play and responsibilities to shoulder, Jin Canrong, associate dean of the School of International Studies at the Renmin University of China, told the Global Times on Wednesday.
If the new president can learn lessons from his previous term to better manage the China-US relations and maintain cooperation and seek more common ground to avoid a zero-sum game and more confrontation, that would not only be good news to the peoples of China and the US, but also the rest of the world, Jin noted.
When asked if Trump wins, will the Chinese side send him a congratulatory message, Mao said that after the US election results are officially announced, we will handle related matters according to usual practice.
