The Chinese Politburo calls on the Central Committee to utilize experience from the anti-corruption campaign.

The Chinese Politburo announced on Thursday that the fifth plenary session of the Communist Party’s 2020 Central Committee will be held in October. This meeting is expected to be the party’s most significant gathering before the 21st national congress in 2027, where leadership reshuffles and the endorsement of a fourth term for Xi Jinping are anticipated. According to state news agency Xinhua, the October plenum will focus on exercising full and rigorous governance over the party. For Beijing, this typically involves fighting corruption, tightening party discipline, and shoring up political loyalty. More than 370 full and alternate members of the Central Committee will participate in the session to review the party's progress and draw on the valuable experience gained from previous anti-corruption efforts.
