The developments taking place in China are causing a great sensation (China Military Coup). There is a large-scale campaign on the Internet, especially on social media, that the 69-year-old Xi Jinping, who is indisputably dominant, has been ousted. There are rumors that he has also been placed under house arrest in the capital Beijing. Moreover, the cancellation of flights amid speculation that the chief of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) has also been removed has added fuel to the massive military deployment campaign in Beijing. On September 14, there are reports that PLA detained Xi Jinping at the airport and placed him under house arrest after he returned on the 16th from attending the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) conference in Samarkand.
However, these are not confirmed by China’s official media Global Times (Global Times) but Communist Party (Communist Party), which is causing more excitement. Also, China’s foreign ministry has remained silent. Some videos of a large military convoy being deployed around Beijing are also doing the rounds on social media. About 80 km. A long convoy is said to be heading towards Beijing. They say military officer Li Qiaoming has taken over as the new president.
However, some websites claim that it is part of a conspiracy against Xi Jinping. Communist Party Plenary of China will be held on 16th of next month. On this occasion, it is being propagated that Xi Jinping is trying to consolidate his power. Meanwhile, it is noteworthy that the propaganda that Xi Jinping has been put under house arrest is going on.
This is the ‘News Highland Vision’ of former Chinese President Hu Jintao and former Premier Wen Jiabao, a website has quoted. It said that former Standing Committee member Song Ping currently controls the Central Guard Bureau (CGB), which protects the CPC Central Committee under orders from Jintao and Jiabao, and that Xi Jinping has lost control over the People’s Liberation Army.
It is known that two former ministers have been sentenced to death in China for corruption. The official media propagated that these measures were taken as part of ending corruption. However, some reports cited that they were executed as part of a crackdown on political opponents.
