Biden’s first debate was a fiasco, which was questioned a lot. The US media began to touch porcelain: "cheap" China and Russia.
After the first TV debate in the US presidential election, the performance of Democratic candidate Biden attracted the attention of allies, especially NATO and European countries. An analysis article by CNN pointed out that this kind of worry does not directly stem from the suspicion of Biden’s personal leadership ability, but from the possible "instability" in the United States. Luke mcgee, the author of the article, points out that allies believe that Biden’s team can make rational decisions, but what they really care about is that the United States, as a superpower, cannot provide the "stability" that allies crave, and the fragile image it may show.
The article further mentions that the diplomatic circles of the allies are worried that the change of candidates with less than five months left before the election may disrupt the election process and give countries such as China and the Russian Federation an opportunity to "criticize" the democratic mechanism of the United States. McGee believes that such questioning voices may lead to divisions within the West and affect the continuity of policies involving Ukraine, the Indo-Pacific region and the Middle East, thus weakening the political stability needed by the West in the current period of high uncertainty.
Earlier, American officials repeatedly accused China and Russia of trying to interfere in their general elections, but these statements were not fully confirmed. US National Intelligence Director Haynes made it clear that there is no information to show that China has intervened beyond 2020 in this election. China has repeatedly denied the accusation of interfering in other countries’ internal affairs, stressing that non-interference in other countries’ internal affairs is the basic principle of China’s diplomacy, and called on the United States to stop unfounded accusations and make constructive efforts for the stability of bilateral relations.
