China’s military has been undergoing a sweeping anti-corruption purge since 2023.
BEIJING - China’s President Xi Jinping said there were “deep-seated problems” in the Chinese military’s politics, ideology, work style and discipline, state-run CCTV reported on June 19, amid an ongoing military anti-corruption purge.
The political tests currently faced by the People’s Liberation Army are “intricate and complex” and the national situation, party situation and military situation are “all undergoing complex and profound changes”, Mr Xi said in a keynote speech to military cadres, including Mr Zhang Youxia and Mr He Weidong, the second- and third-in-command of the PLA.
The former Chinese defence minister Li Shangfu was removed from the website of the Central Military Commission, the Party’s highest military command body, in February after being ousted as defence minister without explanation in October. Reuters reported that he was under investigation for corrupt procurement of military equipment.
