BEIJING, Nov 9, (APP/AFP) – China’s President Xi Jinping sent
congratulations to US president-elect Donald Trump and said he looked forward to working with him, state broadcaster CCTV reported Wednesday.
“I highly value China-US relations, and look forward to working together
with you, and holding fast to mutual respect and non-conflict,
non-confrontation,” the channel cited Xi as saying in its nightly national
