China Communist Party approves amendments to constitution

Published

Xi Jinping

The Chinese Communist Party on Saturday approved amendments to its constitution, including the so-called “Two Establishes” and “Two Safeguards” aimed at cementing the core status of Xi Jinping.

The amendments were passed by a unanimous vote at the end of the party’s National Congress, which takes place once every five years.

The “Two Establishes” refers to establishing Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era as an official guide to action for the party, and establishing the people’s congresses system as the country’s fundamental political system.

The “Two Safeguards” refers to ensuring that power is exercised within the framework of the constitution and laws, and ensuring that the party leads all work in China.

The amendments came after months of speculation that Xi would seek to have his name enshrined in the constitution, alongside Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping.

That would mean he would enjoy special status among party leaders after he steps down as president in 2023.

However, there was no mention of Xi’s name in Saturday’s vote, with party officials instead referring to his “immortal contributions.”

Xi is currently serving his second five-year term as president, and is also General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party and Chairman of the Central Military Commission.

He has amassed more power than any leader since Mao Zedong, and has used that power to crackdown on dissent and centralize decision-making within the party.

The Chinese Communist Party’s approval of amendments to its constitution aimed at cementing Xi Jinping’s status shows that he is well on his way to becoming one of the most powerful leaders in China’s history.

With these amendments, Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era will now be an official guide to action for the party, and his name will likely go down in history alongside other great Chinese leaders.

Trump confirms U.S. strike on Iran’s nuclear sites amid rising tensions; Israel intensifies operations, Iran vows to continue enrichment, and Houthi militants threaten U.S. shipping.


President Trump has confirmed that U.S. forces successfully struck three nuclear facilities in Iran – Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan – with all aircraft safely exiting Iranian airspace. The mission, involving B-2 stealth bombers, comes amid rising tensions over Iran’s nuclear ambitions.

Meanwhile, Israel has intensified its military operations, killing three top Iranian military leaders and striking a major nuclear facility in Isfahan. The Israeli chief of staff warned the operation may lead to a prolonged and complex war.

Iran responded by vowing to continue uranium enrichment and said talks with the U.S. are off the table unless Israel halts its attacks. In a parallel move, Houthi militants threatened U.S. and commercial ships in the Red Sea if American strikes continue in support of Israel.

Adding to the volatility, an Iranian drone hit northern Israel, with the IDF confirming the incident—though no casualties were reported. The U.S. State Department is now organising flights to evacuate Americans from Israel.

Trump announces successful U.S. strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites, while Israel intensifies its military campaign against Iranian leadership.

In Short:
President Trump announced U.S. strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran, confirming all aircraft left Iranian airspace after the operation. Meanwhile, Israel ramped up its military actions against Iran, leading to warnings from Iranian officials and Houthi militants regarding potential escalations.

President Trump announced on Saturday that the United States had successfully completed strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran: Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan.

In a social media post, he confirmed all U.S. aircraft had exited Iranian airspace following the operation.

This military action was preceded by the deployment of stealth B-2 bombers from Missouri, capable of carrying the GBU-57 bunker buster, a powerful weapon considered effective against the Fordow uranium-enrichment facility.

Trump had earlier indicated to senior aides that he approved attack plans for Iran, awaiting Tehran’s decision on its nuclear program.

Meanwhile, Israel’s military intensified its operations against Iranian military leaders and nuclear sites, announcing the elimination of three senior Iranian figures and strikes on the Isfahan facility. Israel’s military chief warned of a potentially prolonged conflict, describing it as the nation’s most complex military undertaking.

In response, Iranian officials stated their refusal to halt uranium enrichment and indicated that negotiations with the U.S. would only occur if Israel ceased its attacks.

Additionally, the U.S. State Department announced the initiation of flights to facilitate the return of American citizens from Israel.

Houthi militants also issued a warning to target U.S. and commercial vessels in the Red Sea should American attacks in support of Israel commence.

Amidst this, an Iranian drone attack recently damaged a building in northern Israel, marking an acknowledged drone strike by the Israeli military during the ongoing conflict. No casualties were reported from the incident.
