China’s Xi Jinping gets set to take on a third term in office

China’s Xi Jinping is about to begin his third term as leader of the nation as his CCP meets for its leadership reshuffle

It’s a move that will cement his place as one of China’s most powerful ruler in decades.

The National Congress of the Communist Party of China is held every five years. It is at this event that new leaders are chosen and party policies are set.

The NCCPC typically sees a streamlined transfer of power from one leader to another.

However, China’s Xi Jinping is expected to break with this precedent when he takes on his third term. Marking a new era of strongman rule and political domination.

This move has implications for the rest of the world, given China’s growing influence on the global stage.

This year’s congress is also particularly significant given the great change the country is facing. This includes mounting economic challenges, as well as growing social unrest.

One of the key questions on people’s minds is what this all means for Taiwan. Of course, China sees the nation as a breakaway province.

The island has been ramping up its defences in recent years. There are concerns that Xi’s third term could see a more aggressive stance from Beijing when it comes to reunifying.

Taiwan is a key ally of the United States, and any move by China to assert its control over the island would be sure to raise tensions between Washington and Beijing.
