President Xi prevailed at the plenum, setting up an indefinite extension of his rule.

  • The plenum was held this week, it concluded yesterday after 4 days of top level talks.

China's ruling Communist Party approved a resolution elevating President Xi Jinping's status in its history. This consolidates Xi as leader and sets up a likely third leadership term next year (to be rubber-stamped at next year's 20th Party Congress).

Similar resolutions have passed only twice before, in 1945 and 1981, which cemented leadership positions for Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping respectively.
