President Xi Jinping hailed China's rise as a global power and demanded unity around his leadership on Sunday, launching a Communist Party Congress that is set to rubber stamp his bid to rule for a historic third term.
The president — whose 10-year rule has seen the country become a global superpower — said “China’s international influence, appeal and power to shape the world has significantly increased”. Xi said the anti-corruption campaign had eliminated “serious latent dangers” within the Communist Party, the military and the state.
Xi also reiterated that China opposed a “Cold War mentality” in international diplomacy, but made no mention of frayed relations with the United States.There were no policy announcements in the address, which was largely a review of the current state of play, and analysts said Xi wanted to project stability.
If picked as party leader for another five-year term as expected, he is almost certain to be elected president at the annual meeting of China’s National People’s Congress in March.
