US President Donald Trump, in an address to the nation on Thursday, renewed his accusations that the 2020 presidential election was marred by foreign interference. He specifically singled out China, alleging that Beijing had access to US voter data. Trump vowed to declassify documents that he claimed would support these allegations.

However, these claims have been repeatedly debunked. US intelligence agencies and multiple independent investigations have found no evidence of significant foreign influence altering the outcome of the 2020 election. The allegations against China have been widely dismissed as unsubstantiated.

Trump's latest remarks come amid his continued efforts to question the legitimacy of the 2020 election, despite numerous court cases and recounts confirming Joe Biden's victory. The promise to declassify documents may be an attempt to revive focus on these issues ahead of upcoming elections.
