Xi Jinping became President of China once again
On Friday, March 10, the National People’s Congress representatives elected Xi Jinping for a third consecutive term as President of China
Nearly three thousand representatives of China’s parliament, the National People’s Congress, voted for 69-year-old Xi. Xi Jinping had no competitors in this election and was the sole candidate
International media say that the election of Mr. Xi as President and also as the leader of the Communist Party is interpreted as an end to decades of power-sharing among the country’s elites and a tendency to strengthen his one-man rule
