U.S. National Security Advisor: Chinese Hackers are Tampering with the U.S. Presidential Election Infrastructure
U.S. National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien has expressed concerns that China-linked hackers are targeting the infrastructure of the U.S. presidential election in November.
In an interview with CBS, O'Brien said that China would like President Trump to lose his bid for re-election. According to O’Brien, just like Russia and Iran, China is attempting to interfere with U.S. democracy by engaging in cyberattacks, phishing and other activities aimed at hacking government websites and election infrastructure, including the State Department's website. He stressed that the U.S. will take every step necessary to fight against the attacks and protect the election infrastructure.
O'Brien also pointed out that the aforementioned hackers from China, Russia, Iran and other countries pose a considerable threat to the U.S. He specifically mentioned that the Chinese government does not want Trump to be re-elected because of his tough stance on China.
He also warned that any country that attempts to interfere with free and fair elections in the U.S., whether it is in support of Biden or Trump, will face severe consequences. "We're Americans. We're not going to [allow] foreign countries [to decide on] who our next president is going to be," said O'Brien.

China's media coverage on US election rises sharply, in response to negative and confusing news.
In the wake of the deadlock in the US presidential election results, some Chinese official media, which used to keep a tight rein on coverage of the election process and vote count, have recently changed. The coverage has been significantly raised, but focusing on negative news such as the discrepancies between US media's vote projections, controversies over mail-in ballots and public protests. There were also notable reports on Democratic presidential candidate Biden when he overtook Trump in Georgia and Pennsylvania.
It has been reported that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has issued a directive on reports of US Presidential Election, that all news have to follow a "unified arrangement", based on "standardized manuscript" from Xinhua News Agency, with "no reprinting of foreign media without authorization, and no follow-up reports". Chinese media are also required to position themselves according to the "state spokesman's stance on the subject", and "strictly prevent anti-US seditious and incite messages such as 'boycott US'". This directive was confirmed by media workers.

The U.S. is Entering a Very Unusual Transition Period, said China state-owned media editor
The editor-in-chief of the China state-owned media Global Times, Hu Xijin, believes that the United States will enter a very unusual transition period and that China needs to develop ties with Biden's team, while not provoking Trump.
Hu said in a social media post that the U.S. is going into the most turbulent and uncertain transition period, and China must have bottom-line thinking, preparing for uncertainties. He added that China must develop contacts with Biden's team to explore the possibility of getting rid of the U.S.-China relation of extreme turmoil.
He further said that since Trump does not accept the election results, it is easier for him to vent all of the anger outside the U.S. than internally. The Chinese government should be conscious to avoid directing resentments over the defeat of the election in the Sino-U.S. relation. He suggested Chinese people should respect Trump himself, and there is no need to step on him or mock him.

胡錫進：美國將進入極不尋常的過渡期
內地環球時報總編輯胡錫進認為，美國將進入極不尋常的過渡期，中國需要與拜登團隊發展聯繫，同時不要剌激特朗普。 胡錫進在社交網站貼文，認為這個將會是美國最為動盪、不確定因素最多的過渡期，中國一定要有底綫思維，做好應變準備，要與拜登團隊發展聯繫，探尋中美關係擺脫極端動盪的可能性。 胡錫進說，由於特朗普不接受選舉結果，他將這一切向美國外部發洩，比對內發洩更加容易，中方應有意識，避免把特朗普敗選怨氣引向中美關係方向，尤其對特朗普本人保持應有尊重，中國人無必要踩他、挖苦他。
