While Europe writ large is waking up to the threat of the Chinese Communist Party, Germany seems to be moving in the other direction. At least its new Chancellor, Olaf Scholz, is. He’s gone against members of Parliament, federal agencies, and European allies in maintaining close economic ties to China. In this episode of China Uncensored, we discuss a deal he pushed through allowing a Chinese shipping company to own a share of Germany’s largest port, Angela Merkel’s relationship with China when she was chan

In live footage shot by Agence France-Presse, apart from the main theme, Hu Jintao, former Secretary General of the Party, was unwillingly escorted out of the Party’s 20th’s National Congress. A sideline might bear the clue to the mystery of why this was happening: It transpired when Hu Jintao tried to read part of a document that was distributed by the Congress. Both Li Zhanshu — a politburo Standing Committee member and Xi Jinping confidant — and Xi himself stopped him. Why did they not let Hu read a d

China’s economy took a hit after the 20th National Party Congress last week, in which Xi Jinping secured a third term and managed to get his loyalists into key positions. Chinese spies have been charged in the US for trying to get information on a sensitive court case. Hong Kong pro-democracy activist Jimmy Lai, who owned the Apple Daily newspaper, is convicted. Watch this episode of China Uncensored for that and more of this week’s China news headlines.

The first plenary session of the 20th Communist Party Congress closed on October 23, and Xi Jinping was successfully re-elected as General Secretary for a third term. Out of the remaining six members of the Politburo Standing Committee, the not-so-factional Zhao Leji and Xi’s close friend Wang Huning were re-elected. The other four new members are all Xi Jinping’s most trusted former ministers. This shows that Xi Jinping has taken full control of the top leadership of the CCP. Some commentators say that th

With a flick of his pen, US President Joe Biden has brought fire and brimstone down on China’s microchip industry. Instead of just sanctioning a few Chinese companies, his executive order used the foreign direct product rule to target any company using US software, technology or machinery to manufacture microchips from selling advanced microchips to China. In this episode of China Unscripted, we discuss the CHIPS Act, Biden’s new executive order, and the Chinese Communist Party’s paranoia about protesters.

#Chinainsights#20congresss The reshuffle of the Chinese leadership has spooked foreign investors. The next day, on Oct. 24th, Chinese stocks suffered their worst day in Hong Kong since the global financial crisis in 2008, as foreign investors rushed to sell Chinese stocks. Nearly all the stocks in the Hang Sheng index were lower, with Chinese internet and technology stocks being hit particularly hard.

Since taking power at the 18th National Congress of the CCP in 2012, Xi Jinping has used the anti-corruption campaign within the 96 million-member Party as a tool to consolidate his power. Although corruption-averse people favor Xi’s anti-corruption measure, it has been used to clear out a number of political enemies. As shown by The Wall Street Journal, Xi’s campaign is aimed at sidelining opponents and suppressing any potential challenge, real or imagined, to his power. —————– #SpotlightOnCh

Xi Jinping has forced himself into full dictator status with a 3rd term, replacing all of the checks and balances left within the Communist Party of China. This is the end for many Chinese, and the beginning of a new era, with a belligerent China ready to face off with the rest of the world, both militarily, and economically… but that probably won’t work out.

This scene has shocked the entire world, and people have been debating about why this happened.
