Unmasking the Anti-Xi Camp: Inside the Chinese Communist Party’s Deepening Power Struggle
China's Communist Party is grappling with an unprecedented internal power struggle, as an 'anti-Xi' camp, comprising conservative princelings and reformist elders, challenges President Xi Jinping's authority. The military's allegiance is contested, particularly after Xi's controversial move against General Zhang Youxia, which breached an unspoken 'red line' of elite protection. This intensifying factionalism, compounded by differing views on Taiwan and the economy, has created a dangerous stalemate that threatens the CCP's stability and could reshape China's future.
