Chinese President Xi Jinping, right, shakes hands with China's former President Hu Jintao at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on Oct. 24, 2017. For governmental officials, senior managers in state owned enterprises, and some private entrepreneurs, the answer is absolutely yes. Xi Jinping is a Party man; he has restored the Party to its sinister pre-Deng position as overlord of all under heaven. Xi Jinping, le nouveau secrétaire général du Parti communiste, qui préside aussi la Commission militaire centrale, a initié en moins d’un an des ajustements importants en matière de politique étrangère. "Xi Jinping Thought", according to Mr Xi himself, is the belief that it is time for "socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era". After the president returns to Beijing, the 747-400 is inspected and converted back to passenger configurations.

Au tournant de 2012 et de 2013, la Chine a renouvelé son équipe dirigeante.

They were used throughout the use of Zemin, Hu Jintao and Xi Jinping. Xi Jinping was given power and he was actually given it, not like Hu who was sort of but not really, and he wasn’t from this faction or that and he had no loyalty to any of the old men themselves; he took over and he wrenched China out of the purgatory of the Hu era.
