Xi Jinping Faces Rebellion, As Chinese Economy Weakens | Vantage with Palki Sharma In an unexpected twist, a revolt against Chinese leader Xi Jinping unfolded behind closed doors during the third plenary session of the Communist Party's 20th Central Committee. Held from July 15-18 in Beijing, the session saw intense backlash against a state-published article lauding Xi as a reformer. Political insiders, retired party elders, and "second-generation reds" openly criticised the piece, calling it factually incorrect and misaligned with official party history. This rare dissent within the party reflects broader frustrations with China's economic direction.
