19 Officials Dropped, 100 Officers Purged: What’s Happening in China’s Military? | Vantage | N18G

Описание: Days before China’s National People’s Congress convenes, 19 officials have been removed from its membership list without public explanation. Nine of them are from the military, including senior commanders such as Li Qiaoming and Shen Jinlong. This follows a broader purge that has sidelined around 100 senior officers since 2022, including generals and lieutenant generals. Reports suggest even retired officers have not been spared. President Xi Jinping frames the campaign as anti-corruption, but its scale now raises questions about continuity and military readiness.  As China modernises its armed forces, it is simultaneously reshaping their leadership at the highest levels.
