TOKYO -- With U.S. President Joe Biden ending his reelection bid, Chinese leader Xi Jinping might begin shaping his long-term foreign policy with an eye toward former President Donald Trump winning a second term in November.
At a campaign rally on Saturday, Trump said he received a "beautiful note" from the Chinese president after being shot in the ear at a July 13 event. China's Foreign Ministry had previously announced that Xi "expressed sympathies" to Trump after the shooting.
