China en 2022

China’s situation changed in 2022. The 20th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party consolidated Xi Jinping’s leadership as General Secretary for a third term. In the foreign policy arena, the China-U.S. confrontation continued, and has now begun to focus on technology issues. The Taiwan conflict escalated to the point of China carrying out military exercises, revealing its decision to recover the island in the medium term. Relations with the European Union deteriorated due to European countries’ support for the Biden administrations’ anti-Chinese policies, and in reaction to China’s position in the Ukrainian conflict. The economy suffered a significant downturn as a result of the Zero Covid policy and the disruption in the economic relationship with the United States. The Chinese government’s policies have turned Hong Kong into a territory that increasingly resembles that of a Chinese province. Its economy continues to be linked to that of the center. It is now clear that “one country” now prevails of the “two systems” principle in place since 1997
