Why Heads of few countries have not congratulated newly elected US president Joe Boden and the vice president Kamala Harris.? China, Russia and Maxico are yet to congratulate the duo. According to reports, China declined on Monday to congratulate Joe Biden as the winner of the US presidential election, saying the outcome of the vote was still to be determined. Many world leaders congratulated Biden and running mate Kamala Harris after the Democrats were declared winners at the weekend and spontaneous celebrations erupted across American cities.
China's foreign ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin told press at a regular briefing that it had "noticed that Biden declared he is the winner of the election." "Our understanding is that the outcome of the election will be determined in accordance with US laws and procedures," said Wenbin. After declining to acknowledge Biden's victory despite repeated questions from reporters, Wang said: "We hope the new US government can meet China halfway."
Trump's four years in the White House have been marked by a costly trade war and increasingly icy relations with China, with the two powers sparring over areas from blame for the Covid-19 pandemic to Beijing's human rights record in Xinjiang and Hong Kong.
