Know why we shouldn't call Xi Jinping as the President of China but should call him the 'General Secretary' of China?
The US 'refuses' to call Xi Jinping as the President of China
AUG 24 (WTN) - China is currently on the target of the world due to the Coronavirus infection epidemic. It is alleged that China's 'General Secretary' Xi Jinping took an irresponsible attitude in stopping the epidemic, causing the epidemic to spread from Wuhan city to the whole world. Actually, you must have been shocked that why we have not written Xi Jinping as the President of China, but we have mentioned him as the General Secretary of China. However, you will be even more attuned when we tell you that actually, Xi Jinping is not an officially elected President of China!
Actually, what is this whole matter? Let's tell you about it in detail. First of all, for your information, let"s know that due to the Coronavirus epidemic, China's aggression in the South China Sea, and the long-running trade war between the US and China has come to an end. At the same time, relations between the two countries have deteriorated so much that the US has now refused to accept and call Xi Jinping as the President of China.
Let's know that there is so much anger in America against Xi Jinping that an act has been presented in America. Soon, under the act, Xi Jinping will not be written as the President of China in the US documents. Indeed, there are some arguments behind not accepting Xi Jinping as the President of China. On the basis of these arguments, the US is not considering Xi Jinping as the President of China.
Indeed, the US argues that currently, Xi Jinping has three titles, but Xi Jinping does not have a presidential title. On this basis, Xi Jinping is currently the General Secretary of China, and he should not be called the President of China. However, the US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has consistently called Xi Jinping as President Xi Jinping. But now, circumstances have changed between the US and China, and Mike Pompeo, in his tweet, is calling Xi Jinping as the General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
It is clear that America is angry with Xi Jinping's policies. For this reason, Republican MP Scott Perry introduced an act in the US. Under this act, Xi Jinping will now be named General Secretary of China instead of the President of China. Indeed, MP Perry argues that since Xi Jinping has not been democratically elected from the people of China; therefore, Xi Jinping is not the President of China.
However, the US argument has a lot of bases. This is why, because Xi Jinping currently has three titles. Of these, one of that post is the State Chairman, while the other post is that of the Chairman of the Central Military Commission. At the same time, Xi Jinping holds the third title of the Communist Party General Secretary. Let's state that none of these degrees is equivalent to the President of China. Not only this, but the Chinese media itself also addresses Xi Jinping as the Communist Party General Secretary and not the President.
For your information, let's know that the Supreme Leader of China is elected by the Congress of the ruling Communist Party after every five years, and this leader is the Secretary-General of the China Communist Party who becomes the President of China, but let you know that the President of China is not democratically elected by the people of China. Ever since Xi Jinping came to power in 2012, he has greatly increased his political power and has made himself as powerful as Mao.
Actually, from calling Xi Jinping as the President of China and calling him the General Secretary, it is an important part of American diplomacy. Actually, the shifting from President to General Secretary means that America wants to realize China that there is a difference between the elected representative by the people and dictatorship. But, in the midst of all this, the US President Donald Trump has not yet called Xi Jinping a General Secretary of China. However, Trump has now stopped calling Jinping a friend, and Trump has also made it clear that he is not interested in meeting with his Chinese counterpart.
Here, the US-China Economic and Security Review Commission (USCC) has made it clear that Xi Jinping will henceforth be called the General Secretary and not the President of China. This is why, because addressing the top Chinese leader as president creates the impression that the people of China have elected him democratically. In fact, the US wants to prove under its diplomacy that it (America) is with the Chinese people, and the Communist Party of China has captured their (Chinese citizens) democratic rights.
