Chinese Communist Party’s ‘sixth plenum’
Held over four days in November 2021, the Chinese Communist Party's "sixth plenum" saw members of the Central Committee, the party’s highest governing body, gather in Beijing for one of the most important political events in the country. A historic resolution hailed Xi Jinping as the creator of a body of “theories and thoughts”, putting him on a par with party immortals Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping and paving the way for a legacy-defining third term for the president.
