Chinese officials keep low-key position on US presidential race while focusing on local politics. Intelligence gathering continues as experts predict no major shifts in US-China relations

Chinese decision-makers show limited interest in the on-going US presidential race (where Harris and Trump are key players)‚ maintaining their hands-off approach to the electoral process. Social-media in China however shows clear pro-Trump bias‚ even though official channels dont take sides

Chinese political analysts consensus
