Xi Jinping sends Independence Day congratulatory message to the United States
SCMP says Beijing rarely publishes July 4 presidential greetings, and the move comes after fresh diplomatic efforts aimed at stabilizing volatile US-China relations.
Chinese leader Xi Jinping sent the United States a congratulatory message for Independence Day on July 4, a gesture Beijing does not typically publicize on that date, according to the South China Morning Post.
The outlet said Xi’s message marks a departure from convention and follows a period of heightened diplomatic efforts intended to steady relations between the two countries.
SCMP described the broader context as ongoing volatility in US-China ties, with the July 4 greeting part of the push to reduce friction.
