China to unveil new leadership on Oct 23, Xi to stay on as ruling party leader

Hindustan Times  

China will unveil its new leadership line-up on October 23, a day after the Communist Party of China’s 20th national congress, which begins Sunday, wraps up at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. Responding to a question at the press conference, Sun said China’s “dynamic zero Covid” policy to tackle the Covid-19 epidemic are the most cost-effective and have worked the best for the country “Since the onset of the epidemic, China has put people and people’s lives front and center,” Sun said, adding: “We give top priority to people’s health and safety. This is part and parcel of our epidemic response efforts.” “Dynamic zero-Covid policy has been adopted in light of China’s national realities and it is a science-based policy,” Sun was quoted by official news agency Xinhua as saying without mentioning the policy’s adverse impact on the country’s economy or on people’s lives. “In not promising to renounce the use of force, we are in no way targeting our Taiwan compatriots, but rather foreign interference and an extremely small number of ‘Taiwan independence’ elements and their separatist activities,” Sun said, adding that the goal is to advance the process of China’s peaceful reunification.
