Chinese President Xi Jinping expressed concern over the shooting incident involving former US President Donald Trump during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania. “China is concerned about the shooting incident involving former President Trump. President Xi Jinping has conveyed sympathy for former President Trump,” a Foreign Ministry spokesperson stated.
Trump sustained a gunshot wound to the ear during a Saturday campaign rally, causing blood to streak across his face and prompting swift action from his security agents. The shooting is under investigation as a potential assassination attempt.
Following the incident, the FBI identified the shooter as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks of Pennsylvania, according to early reports from US media. Crooks and one rally attendee were killed, and two other spectators were injured.
