Chinese Vice President Han Zheng will attend US President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration. This visit aims to signal goodwill and possibly reset China-US relations. Han's visit follows a call between Chinese leader Xi Jinping and Trump discussing trade and other issues.

Vice President Han Zheng, China’s representative at Donald Trump's inauguration, is a trusted adviser to President Xi Jinping and a long-time survivor of Chinese politics who rose from toiling on a collective farm and in factories to becoming one of the most powerful people in the country.
