Over the weekend China announced it was investigating the military’s top general, Zhang Youxia, over suspected violations of discipline and law. Youxia is the second-highest military member below President Xi Jinping.
The announcement lacks detail as to what Youxia is specifically being investigated for. “I do not believe any evidence publicly released or selectively leaked by Chinese authorities would necessarily reflect the core reason for Zhang’s removal,” said K. Tristan Tang, non-resident Vasey Fellow at Pacific Forum. “The critical point is that Xi Jinping decided to move against Zhang; once an investigation is launched, problems are almost inevitably uncovered.”
For the army and China in general, the full impact of the changes is still unknown. But some experts say the move also might have repercussions on Beijing’s next move on Taiwan, the self-ruled island that Beijing claims as its own territory. Nathaniel Dove has more.
