So, for example, suppose that, for whatever reason, the Chinese government was to look at an upcoming US election and say, "You know what, we would like this party to win," let's say, or "We would like civil war to break out" or whatever.
Por ejemplo, supongamos que, por la razón que sea, el Gobierno chino dijera, de cara a las proximas elecciones en EE. UU.: “Nos gustaría que gane tal partido”, por decir, o “Nos gustaría que estalle una guerra civil”, o lo que sea.
