A high-profile meeting of the CPC has adopted a landmark resolution on the major achievements and historical experience of the CPC's centenary endeavours, according to a communique released on Thursday.
The resolution sets the stage for next year's sweeping leadership reshuffle and paves the way for a legacy-defining third term for the president. The communique's portrayal of Xi's achievements goes beyond his political leadership and extends to the ideological front by presenting him as the architect of a series of "original theories and strategies" that direct the party to continue its rule and mission of building a socialist China.
At the plenum, the Central Committee fully affirmed the work that its Politburo has carried out since the fifth plenary session and has unanimously agreed that the external environment has grown increasingly complex and grave over the past year under the combined impact of worldwide changes of a scale unseen in a century and the global coronavirus pandemic, while China has faced extremely arduous tasks in Covid-19 prevention and control as well as economic and social development at home.
It said that China’s economy has maintained good momentum, positive advances have been made in building up China’s scientific and technological self-reliance, and further progress has been achieved in reform and opening up. A complete victory has been secured in the fight against poverty as scheduled and steady progress was made in modernising national defence and the armed forces, and China’s major-country diplomacy has advanced on all fronts.
With regard to upholding “One Country, Two Systems”, the plenum stressed thatHong Kong and Macao should be “governed by patriots”in order to restore order in Hong Kong and ensure a turn for the better in the region. The communique also puts firm stance on opposing separatist activities seeking “Taiwan independence.”
