Xi Pledges to Maintain Corruption Fight in China, Xinhua Says

Xi Jinping's pledge to maintain a robust anti-corruption campaign signals a dual strategy: addressing public discontent over corruption while consolidating his power. By framing the fight against graft as a moral imperative, Xi not only seeks to root out corruption but also to deter potential challengers within the party. This approach may bolster his image domestically, yet it raises questions about the sustainability of such campaigns in the long term, especially if they are perceived as politically motivated.
