WASHINGTON, D.C. (TIP): Chinese President Xi Jinping is not expected to attend President-elect Donald Trump‘s inauguration next month, despite receiving a personal invitation from Trump shortly after Election Day, two sources familiar with the planning told CBS News. According to the CBS report, China‘s ambassador to the U.S. and his spouse are expected to represent Beijing at the Jan. 20 event, following standard diplomatic protocol. Sources also indicated that additional Chinese officials may join the delegation. Inauguration organizers have assigned staff to manage diplomatic protocol during the ceremony. Both the Chinese embassy in Washington and the Trump transition team declined to comment on the matter. This is a developing story and will be updated as more information becomes available.
