The parliament of China re-elected Xi Jinping as the country’s president for the second term on Saturday with a swooping 2,970 votes inside central Beijing’s Great Hall of the People.
Besides the second term, what would bolster XI’s position is the constitutional amendment to remove presidential term limits, meaning Xi can stay indefinitely in power to see the rise of the state he is leading with an iron fist.
