[The Epoch Times, September 15, 2023](Epoch Times reporters Fang Xiao and Luo Ya interviewed and reported) The Chinese Communist Party’s political situation is treacherous and changeable, with undercurrents surging in the diplomatic system. Xi Jinping’s confidant Qin Gang has been missing for nearly three months. Wang Yi, who has returned to serve as Foreign Minister, was officially announced today (September 15) that he will be absent from the United Nations General Assembly meeting after a rare absence from a major G20 diplomatic occasion.

Experts revealed that Wang Yi angered Xi Jinping due to mistakes in his arrangements for attending the BRICS summit. He was severely criticized and ordered to undergo an inspection. At present, officials in the CCP’s diplomatic system are generally lying flat and the entire system is in chaos, leading to many behaviors that are absurd. Cavity board.

Wang Yi was absent from the G20 and his mistake in arranging the “BRICS” was corrected and written for inspection

According to the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Communist Party of China, Wang Yi’s last public event was on September 7.

On the same day, Wang Yi met with Venezuelan Vice President Rodriguez.

On the same day, the seventh meeting of the China-Australia High-Level Dialogue was held in Beijing. Li Zhaoxing, former Foreign Minister of the Communist Party of China, serves as the head of the Chinese delegation. According to official reports, after the meeting, Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with the Australian delegation collectively.

Wang Yi was supposed to accompany Chinese Premier Li Qiang to attend the G20 Summit from September 9 to 10, but he was absent. Li Qiang was accompanied by State Councilor and Secretary-General of the State Council Wu Zhenglong and others to attend the G20 Summit.

Han Lianchao, who once worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Communist Party of China and the U.S. Senate, posted on the overseas social media platform , it is indeed strange that he did not accompany Li Qiang to attend the G20, and he recently confirmed that he will not attend the United Nations General Assembly. The CCP’s behind-the-scenes operations are getting darker and darker, and it’s hard for the outside world to make wild guesses. All in all, it was a good show, and we also took advantage of it to have some fun.

On September 15, Yuan Hongbing, a liberal legal scholar in Australia who is familiar with the CCP’s political situation, disclosed to The Epoch Times secrets about the CCP’s top officials, especially the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

He said that the recent news coming out of China is that on the eve of the G20, Xi Jinping visited South Africa and attended the BRICS meeting. Many problems arose due to the entire arrangement of Foreign Minister Wang Yi. Including Xi Jinping’s secretary being blocked from the door, the spiral staircase where Xi Jinping got off the plane was slippery, etc. These issues were not properly arranged.

In late August, Xi Jinping went to South Africa to attend the BRICS Summit, during which he was absent from the conference forum without excuse. When Xi Jinping entered the venue for the Leaders’ Summit, his entourage carrying briefcases jogged to keep up, but the conference staff blocked the door and the door was immediately closed. After Xi Jinping was alone, he looked back frequently, his posture became messy, he walked and walked, and even stayed in place for a few seconds. Then he looked back at the door, and finally had to walk forward alone. Related videos went viral on the Internet, causing Xi to lose face.

Yuan Hongbing revealed that according to people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Communist Party of China, an important reason why Qin Gang was promoted quickly in the past was that when Qin Gang was serving as the director of the Protocol Department, several visits to Xi Jinping were carefully arranged, without any Xi Jinping is extremely satisfied if there are any mistakes.

“At that time, Xi Jinping believed that loyalty to him should be demonstrated through concrete actions. He felt that Qin Gang had indeed shown loyalty to him when he served as director of the Protocol Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.”

Qin Gang was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs in December last year. Only three months later, he was promoted to State Councilor at this year’s “Two Sessions” of the Communist Party of China, which surprised the outside world.

Qin Gang disappeared for a month after his last public appearance in late June. On July 25, officials announced that Qin Gang would be removed from the post of Foreign Minister and Wang Yi would return as Foreign Minister. The CCP did not explain the reasons for removing Qin Gang. Qin Gang was dismissed from the post of Foreign Minister just over half a year after he took office, which again shocked people. Qin Gang still holds the position of State Councilor, but until now, he has been in a rare state of disappearance.

Yuan Hongbing revealed that not long after Qin took office, he had problems with “loyalty” and became what Xi regarded as a “two-faced person.” “Qin Gang had cross-system interactions with military leaders of the Rocket Force. During the interaction, he also made some comments that echoed these military leaders’ dissatisfaction with Xi Jinping’s launch of the Taiwan Strait war, so Qin Gang was purged. And Wang Yi hastily returned to the post of foreign minister, even though he He has been engaged in diplomatic work, but he returned to serve as a minister. He himself has severe diabetes, so he is insufficient in energy. During Xi Jinping’s visit to South Africa this time, many problems arose in Xi Jinping’s ceremonial reception. Wang Yi therefore Received severe criticism from Cai Qi.

“Cai Qi made extremely severe criticism of Wang Yi as the head of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee. Now Wang Yi is undergoing inspection. We have received information that Wang Yi has not been double-checked and is accused of serious work mistakes. As for him It’s unclear what the future holds.”

Yuan Hongbing said, “It is against this background that after Xi Jinping returned from his visit to South Africa, Cai Qi also gave two instructions: one is that in the future, Xi will not visit any diplomatic activities that cannot be dominated by the CCP; the second is that any diplomatic activities that cannot be demonstrated clearly Xi Jinping has never personally visited diplomatic activities involving Xi Jinping as a world-class leader. This is also the reason why Li Qiang was sent to India to attend the G20 meeting.”

Independent commentator Cai Shenkun told the Epoch Times reporter that Wang Yi’s arrangement mistakes at the BRICS meeting in South Africa must have made Xi very angry, which led to Xi not attending the G20 and Wang Yi also absent from the G20.

But Cai Shenkun said he did not think Xi would replace Wang Yi immediately. Because changing foreign ministers so frequently is a huge international joke. “If foreign ministers are changed frequently, the international community will not know where the CCP’s diplomacy will go in the future, and they will not know which Chinese diplomats to deal with. The entire international community will be at a loss.”

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirms that Wang Yi will not attend the UN General Assembly and South Korea will act as his representative

Recently, multiple sources reported that the Chinese Communist Party plans to send Vice President Han Zheng to attend the United Nations General Assembly meeting. Vice President of the State is a largely ceremonial position.

At the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Communist Party of China on September 15, spokesperson Mao Ning confirmed that Han Zheng, Vice Chairman of the Communist Party of China, will attend the general debate of the 78th United Nations General Assembly from September 18 to 23. During this period, Han Zheng will attend several United Nations events and hold bilateral meetings with the United Nations Secretary-General, the President of the 78th United Nations General Assembly and leaders of relevant countries.

However, at the end of July, Chinese Communist Party officials hinted to U.S. officials that Foreign Minister Wang Yi would attend the United Nations General Assembly. Chinese Communist Party officials said that while in the United States, Wang Yi may go to Washington for detailed discussions to prepare for Xi Jinping’s trip to San Francisco.

Cai Shenkun believed that in the past, foreign ministers had to attend UN General Assembly meetings, and Wang Yi would not be allowed to attend this time. From this perspective, Xi Jinping is now dissatisfied with Wang Yi. As for how big a problem Wang Yi has, if Xi wants to kill him, it will definitely be easy to investigate Wang Yi’s problems. Past diplomacy, especially the process of money diplomacy, was all handled by the foreign minister. Money diplomacy There are very secretive funds within the CCP, and there are also big loopholes or leaks. A lot of things will definitely be uncovered if investigated, so whether something happens to Wang Yi still needs to be observed.

At the press conference on the 15th, a Archyde.com reporter asked: It is reported that Wang Yi will go to Moscow next week to meet with Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov. Can you confirm?

Mao Ning did not answer directly, only saying that China and Russia have always maintained close communication. You can stay tuned for the latest situation.

When asked the same question at a regular press conference on September 13, Mao Ning’s answer was exactly the same as today (15th).

The CCP’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs collectively claimed that the entire system was malfunctioning.

Yuan Hongbing further revealed that after Xi Jinping came to power, his entire diplomatic policy and style have undergone major changes. During the period when Zhou Enlai was managing the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs implemented an extremely cunning foreign policy with many strategic considerations. During the periods of Deng Xiaoping and Jiang Zemin, they followed the so-called diplomatic line of keeping a low profile and biding time. On the surface, it wants to maintain good relations with the United States and Europe, but secretly encourages the United States and Europe to engage in appeasement towards the tyranny of the Chinese Communist Party, thus creating a period of strategic opportunities for economic development for the tyranny of the Chinese Communist Party.

He said that during Xi Jinping’s administration, he carried out all-round wolf warrior diplomacy, attacking in all directions and making enemies in all directions. Many staff in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are not familiar with his style, so now the entire diplomatic system is in chaos.

Wang Yi has served in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Communist Party of China since 1982 and has been promoted step by step. From 2013 to 2018, Wang Yi served as Minister of Foreign Affairs and Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee. From 2018 to 2022, Wang Yi served as State Councilor and Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Cai Shenkun pointed out that the CCP’s diplomatic line will involve internal strife. The situation facing the CCP is whether it should continue to maintain friendly relations with Western countries or maintain its wolf warrior diplomacy style. Which path should it take? In the past, Xi may have admired Wang Yi’s Wolf Warrior diplomacy, but after ten years in office, he discovered that Wolf Warrior diplomacy had not brought him any benefits. On the one hand, the whole world does not buy his account at all, and on the other hand, the entire domestic political ecology does not buy his account, so he will wonder if Wang Yi is deliberately setting a trap for me? Is it intentional to put me in a situation where the whole people and even the international community are hostile? Wang Yi wanted to explain, but he couldn’t explain it clearly.

Cai Shenkun believes that the CCP’s Wolf Warrior diplomacy has basically come to an end and will not be able to continue without adjustments. Even if Wang Yi continues to be Foreign Minister, he must adjust his Wolf Warrior diplomacy style, otherwise the CCP’s diplomacy will basically be a dead end. Even the so-called poor and small countries are no longer willing to deal with the CCP. Then the United States and Western countries, including developing countries, will no longer be willing to deal with the CCP. Wang Yi can be said to be the biggest culprit of the CCP’s diplomatic failures in the past decade.

Yuan Hongbing revealed that the entire CCP diplomatic system is now in chaos and malfunctioning. Xi Jinping cannot find a capable foreign minister who is also absolutely loyal to him.

Yuan Hongbing once again emphasized that dissatisfaction with Xi Jinping is a common phenomenon in the CCP officialdom. However, under Xi’s extremely cruel power purge, an atmosphere of terror is generally permeated among officials. On the surface, officials must continue to show their loyalty to Xi in order to avoid being dismissed and purged, but deep down, their dissatisfaction with Xi has been building up for a long time. In this context, the emergence of “two-faced people” is a common phenomenon in official circles. Moreover, CCP officials are generally lying flat, and no one is willing to take responsibility.

“So I say that the largest group of people lying down in China now are not young people, but tens of millions of CCP officials. They have all been lying down because they have lost confidence in Xi Jinping. The system of lying down in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is particularly obvious, because It has to constantly deal with the international community, so the various behaviors of the diplomatic system show how absurd and rigid it is. Even a small matter like Xi Jinping’s personal translator following him into the venue will lead to such an embarrassing situation for Xi . ”
