Xinhua
Chinese state
Xinhua is the official state news agency of the People's Republic of China, owned by the Chinese government and operated under direct CCP authority. It functions as the primary international and domestic mouthpiece of the CCP, distributing government-sanctioned news in multiple languages across more than 180 countries. Its coverage of the Trump administration's second term has been broadly critical, characterizing U.S. domestic politics as chaotic and polarized and framing Trump's trade policies as harmful to the global order, though it adopts a more neutral or cooperative tone when reporting on U.S.–China diplomatic exchanges.
