China's 20th Party Congress



The 20th Congress of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) opened in Beijing on 16 October 2022. Its main task is, in theory, to decide on the composition of the Central Committee, which in the legal fiction in turn decides, immediately following the Congress, whether to grant current General Secretary Xi a third mandate, and determines the composition of the Standing Committee of the Politburo (SCPB). Observers are alert for any sign that the principle of collective leadership has eroded further and for any hint about the future direction of economic, foreign and health policies in China.

General Secretary Xi delivered the traditional work report on 16 October, describing the Party's accomplishments since the previous Congress in 2017 and giving general guidelines for the five-years ahead of the 21st Party Congress. In his report, Xi highlighted his accomplishments since the 18th Congress in 2012, which installed him as CCP General Secretary, and placed himself on the same level as founder of the People's Republic of China, Mao Zedong, and Deng Xiaoping, who launched China's very successful economic reforms in 1978. On economic policies, Xi promised on the one hand to foster a 'world-class business environment' that is market-oriented and law-based, while at the same time insisting on the need for stronger CCP influence including in mixed-ownership and non-public enterprises. He promised that China would continue to promote trade and investment liberalisation, while simultaneously demanding greater self-reliance.
The same ambiguity also characterises his interventions on China's foreign policies: Xi insisted that China respects the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries, but did not mention Russia's invasion of Ukraine. General Secretary Xi also stressed that reunification with Taiwan was China's affair and concerns the Chinese alone, while repeating the usual lines on Taiwan, including the right to use non-peaceful means. He also referred to the 'strengthening of mechanisms for countering foreign sanctions, interference and long-arm jurisdiction' as part of his national security improvement agenda.
