Trump alleges China meddled in 2020 election and questions voting security ahead of midterms

US President Donald Trump claimed in a primetime address that China interfered in the 2020 election and highlighted 'shocking vulnerabilities' in American voting systems. He stated that he had declassified hundreds of intelligence files supporting these claims, though the US intelligence community has previously concluded that China did not interfere in the 2020 election. China's foreign ministry denied the allegations, calling them 'entirely fabricated.' Trump also accused China of acquiring 220 million voter files and suggested that officials failed to disclose such findings. However, he provided no evidence that China used this information to affect election outcomes. Democrats criticized Trump for undermining trust in the upcoming midterm elections.
