ISSUE/POLICY BRIEFS & REPORTS

CHINESE FOREIGN MINISTER HIGHLIGHTS MAIN FEATURES OF CHINA’S FOREIGN POLICY The latest (May 16) issue of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)’s leading theoretical
fortnightly magazine ‘Qiu Shi’ (Seeking Truth) included a lengthy article by Chinese State
Councillor and Foreign Minister Qin Gang. In it Qin Gang quite explicitly, but without naming,
criticised the US and West and outlined China’s global foreign policy agenda. Qin Gang is a
close associate and protégé of Chinese President Xi Jinping and for years was in charge of
managing Xi’s foreign policy schedule. Just 57 years old, Qin Gang’s rise has been rapid and
he is well positioned to make it to the Politburo at the next Party Congress in 2027.

RISING TENSIONS IN THE TAIWAN STRAIT As January 2024 -- the date for Taiwan's national elections -- draws closer, it is certain that
China will be a factor in the elections. Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen's stop-overs in New York
and Los Angeles and meeting with US House Majority Leader McCarthy on April 5 amid
steadily escalating Cross Strait tensions has also provoked "robust counter-measures" by
China.

CHINA'S NEW LEADERSHIP IS PREPARING FOR A MILITARY THREAT Amid the flurry of documents submitted and appointments confirmed at the recent plenary sessions of the National People's Congress (NPC) -- China’s version of a parliament -- and the Chinese People's Consultative Conference (CPPCC) -- China’s top political advisory body -- there are indications that China’s leadership is rather anxious at the adverse and deteriorating international environment that China faces. The failure of US Secretary of State Blinken to travel to China because of the Chinese spy balloon episode revealed not only the poor state of Sino-US relations but the deep suspicion of China in the US political establishment and Administration. While the recent NPC and CPPCC plenary sessions have given economic development unmistakable priority in a bid to reduce – if not eliminate – dependence on the US, national security has been given equal importance.

CHINA'S BIG TWO SESSIONS’ CONFIRM XI JINPING AS CHINA’S PRE-EMINENT UNRIVALLED LEADER The plenary sessions of the 14th National People's Congress (NPC) -- China's version of a parliament -- and 14th Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) -- China's top political advisory body -- that concluded on March 13 were, as anticipated, a success for Xi Jinping. Having again been elected as General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Central Committee (CC) at the 20th Party Congress last October, 2952 Deputies to the NPC unanimously re-elected Xi Jinping for a third term as President of China. In his first speech after the NPC session, Xi Jinping exulted that he was honoured to be elected to "the lofty office of President". He also claimed to have lifted the people out of poverty and wiped out the centuries of humiliation they had suffered!
