Media reports are circulating a transcript of Xi's internal speech at the Political Work Conference of the Central Military Commission in Yan'an two weeks ago. In his speech, Xi addressed the entire party, stating, "Today, we are holding a military meeting in Yan'an to prepare for a civil war. Everyone must realize that we are facing a major economic and political crisis. War has already begun. If we do not respond with war, our party and government will disintegrate." We have all seen the establishment of police and anti-tax centers nationwide. If the coordination of police and tax forces cannot resolve the economic difficulties, a wartime economy will be launched as necessary, and the military will be deployed. A large number of personal bankruptcies, bank failures, corporate bankruptcies, and a storm that could shake political power is coming." ___________________________________ #China #ChinaNews #ChinaInsights
