On Sunday, Chinese President Xi Jinping will be re -elected as Secretary -General of the Communist Party after he removed every type of opposition in the country and within the ranks of the party, guiding himself to himself a new state at the head of China for at least five years.
He will become the most powerful leader since Mao Zedong established the dictatorship with this third term (1949-1976).
A week after the deliberations behind closed doors, the twentieth conference of the Communist Party of China concluded on Saturday with a major amendment in its central committee, which is an internal parliament for the party. Members of the new Central Committee were renewed by 65% compared to the 2017 collection, according to estimates from Agence France-Presse.
The 25 members of the Political Bureau—whose nomination was decided upon by the Communist Party—as well as the members of its permanent committee are chosen during the first meeting of the new committee, which has 205 members overall but only 11 women. This group, which is now made up of seven people that truly supported the Chinese government, has a significant impact.
In addition, four of the seven members—including the incumbent prime minister Lee Ke Qiang, who is set to leave office in March—are missing from the list of Central Committee members provided by the new Chinese News Agency.
The third Chinese committee will be absent from the third Chinese official Lee Zanchu and Deputy Prime Minister Han Cheng and Puang Yang, head of the political consulting conference of the Chinese people, a association that does not have the authority of decision..
The Chinese president is on track to serve a third term in office.
