Xi Jinping will officially begin his third term as leader, becoming the first leader since Mao to exceed the tradition of collective leadership, choosing a successor, and stepping down after two terms.
The powerful leader of China is trying to cement his influence and control over the party by forming a special circle of allies. The main members who will run the party and the country, soon to be introduced, will reflect his capability in this matter. Everyone is waiting for the unveiling of this list of members.
One of the subtle yet intriguing aspects of the Chinese Communist Party meeting is the focus on texts, statements, and special editions of the party. Everyone is waiting to see whether the party will officially unveil Xi Jinping’s thoughts. The concept of leadership thoughts has never been used for any leader since Mao.
