CBS reported on Xi Jinping's invitation to Trump's inauguration in January


US President-elect Donald Trump invited Chinese President Xi Jinping to attend his inauguration, which will be held in Washington on January 25. This was reported by CBS News on December 11, citing interlocutors.
"Trump invited Xi in early November, shortly after the election, but it is unclear whether he accepted the invitation," the CBS interlocutors said.
Other world leaders are expected to attend the inauguration, according to the network. In addition, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban is likely to attend the ceremony.
Earlier on December 10, the new European Union (EU) head of diplomacy Kaja Kallas said that newly elected US President-elect Donald Trump must be tough on Russia if he wants to have a real influence on China.
Earlier on December 8, Trump said he is actively trying to end the conflict in Ukraine. The American president-elect added that after his inauguration, Kiev should not expect military aid in the previous volume.
In November, it was reported that Trump was going to break the deepening partnership between China, Russia, Iran and DPRK. It was noted that the new American leader is currently without strong support from allies, which puts him at a disadvantage. The best strategy for Trump to boost the confidence of US allies is to help Kiev.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov noted that Trump's desire to "disengage" Russia and China is incomprehensible, as this cooperation is not directed against the interests of other countries.
