Xi Jinping’s military purge increased: China removed 6 generals and former Politburo member from the post of MP
Beijing. Six senior military officers, a former financial regulator and a former Politburo member have been removed from their parliamentary posts as part of a sweeping anti-corruption campaign in China by President Xi Jinping. This action has deeply affected the highest levels of China’s political and military power.
Several prominent figures have been removed from their posts, including one of these six military officers, General Xu Shueqiang, who was the head of the army’s equipment development. The move is believed to be part of China’s ongoing large-scale military and political reforms and anti-corruption campaign launched by Xi Jinping’s government to strengthen national security and internal party discipline. The campaign not only aims to increase the efficiency of the military forces, but also ensures that the military remains completely under the control of the Party.
According to political experts, this latest move further strengthens President Xi’s aim to control the concentrated groups at the top of power and eliminate the roots of corruption. Along with this, it will also increase China’s political stability and military capability.
These changes in these systems of China also have global implications because any change in the military and political policy of the world’s second largest economy can affect international relations. Currently, this ongoing campaign under the leadership of Xi Jinping will make China’s balance of power strategies more effective.
Such large-scale replacements of military officers and senior party members reflect China’s strict discipline and parliamentary legislation that Xi Jinping has taken up in the fight against widespread corruption. It is being seen both inside and outside China that this hold of Xi Jinping is further strengthening his influence in the party.
