The Chinese Communist Party has passed a quote “historical resolution” which cements Xi Jinping as an equal to founding party member Mao Zedong.
This comes after in 2018, China scrapped the two term limit, allowing Xi Jinping to remain in power for life, with this newest resolution observers say could be a way to centralise power through a cult of personality.
Adam Ni, editor of China Neican, a newsletter on Chinese affairs says “He is trying to cast himself as the hero in the epic of China's national journey” and that the resolution is a demonstration that cements Xi’s retention of the party and power.
