Xi warns of "impurities" in the Chinese Communist Party

Chinese President Xi Jinping emphasized the need for stricter discipline within the Communist Party, citing unresolved ideological and organizational issues. He highlighted the importance of addressing corruption and ensuring accountability among officials. The recent resolution from the Central Committee outlines measures to investigate wealth discrepancies and regulate family members' business activities. Xi noted that the party faces new challenges as it evolves, particularly with younger members. The resolution also mandates collective decision-making and regular reporting from lower disciplinary bodies. This comes ahead of the 2027 Congress, with a significant number of officials already punished in the ongoing anti-corruption campaign.
