China’s President Xi Jinping doubles down on zero-Covid as congress opens - BBC News

China’s President Xi Jinping has signalled there would be no immediate loosening of his controversial zero-Covid strategy as a historic Communist Party congress opened in Beijing. In a break in decades-long tradition, delegates are likely to hand Mr Xi a third term as party chief. Mr Xi also addressed the issue of Taiwan - which China claims as part of its territory. He said Beijing would “never promise to renounce the use of force“ and that “complete reunification of our country must and will be realised“. Please subscribe HERE #China #BBCNews
