There are no women in the Politburo of the Chinese Communist Party
For the first time in 25 years, there is no woman in the top leadership of the Chinese Communist Party. This information is known according to the new Politburo roster published on Sunday (October 23).
Sun Chunlan, the only woman to sit on the previous Politburo, has retired and no other women have been appointed.
Chinese President Xi Jinping has ascended to the top post for a new term at the Communist Party's week-long congress, Communist Party officials said on Sunday. He was elected as China's leader for a third term after a week-long congress.
Xi Jinping vowed to "devoutly carry out his duties" on Sunday after winning a historic third term as China's leader.
"I sincerely thank the entire party for the trust you have placed in us," he told reporters at Beijing's Great Hall of the People.
Mao Zedong was the founder of the Chinese Communist Party. Since then, no other leader has served as the head of China three times in a row. Xi Jinping broke that record. At the same time, he also announced the standing committee.
