China Political Turmoil: China’s Defense Minister Li Shangfu has been ‘missing’ or has not been seen anywhere in public for the last several months. Along with this, there is news of ‘disappearance’ of many senior Chinese military officers in media reports. News of top military and government officials becoming ‘invisible’ has created political instability in China.
According to the report of news agency Reuters, investigation is going on against General Shi Shangfu, he was given the responsibility of purchasing military equipment for the People’s Liberation Army.
According to the BBC, shortly before Li Shangfu’s disappearance, two senior Rocket Force officials and a military court judge were removed from their posts. The removed people were responsible for the maintenance of the Chinese Army’s atomic missiles.
Many people who controlled the army in China are also missing
Many officers holding high positions in the Chinese army are being investigated. These people are the backbone of the Chinese army. In the year 2017, Xi Jinping had removed more than 100 army officers from their posts. The Chinese government has not given any clear reason for the removal of the officials. But many reports indicate that these officers were under investigation for corruption.
According to BBC monitoring, Xi Jinping is keeping an eye on the military department in China. There is speculation that the decision to remove officials from top positions in China is undoubtedly in the hands of Xi Jinping, but he is doing all this under the pressure of his party.
Jinping does not fail to remove even those close to him?
In July, China’s then Foreign Minister Chin Gang was dismissed from his post. The reason for this was said to be his alleged relationship with a TV presenter. It is believed that Chin Gang has been Xi Jinping’s closest official. It can be understood that in a very short time, Chin Gang was made the Chinese Foreign Minister from the Chinese Ambassador to America, but he was removed from the post due to the alleged affair. However, the Chinese government did not give the reason for his dismissal.
When Qin Gang was dismissed from his post, the media made every effort to find out the reason for his removal from the Chinese government, but the Chinese government covered up the matter of Qin Gang’s dismissal citing health.
According to the report of Wall Street General, Chinese officials were told regarding the removal of Chin Gang that he was removed from the post of Foreign Minister due to extra-marital affair. According to the report of Wall Street Journal, an investigation was also conducted on how much China’s national security would be affected due to Chin Gang’s relationship.
According to CNN, at a press conference on Wednesday, journalists asked about the recent information about Chi Gang, after which China’s Foreign Ministry sidestepped the issue by saying that the question was not asked on any diplomatic issue.
According to BBC, Xi Jinping’s removal of officials and ministers is a kind of show of power. Amidst the continuous turmoil, questions are also emerging about Xi Jinping’s power in China.
