A new book compiling President Xi Jinping’s discourses on governing China’s military according to the law has been released. The collection features speeches and writings from November 2012 to June 2023, highlighting Xi’s emphasis on strengthening the rule of law within the armed forces.
The Central Military Commission (CMC) is encouraging all military officers and soldiers to study the book thoroughly. Senior officers are especially urged to set an example by respecting, learning, and applying the laws in their duties.
By engaging with the book, military personnel are expected to enhance their understanding and practice of legal principles in their work. This initiative aims to accelerate transformative changes in military governance and reinforce the role of law in boosting national defense and military capabilities.
This move underscores China’s commitment to modernizing its military through legal reforms. For young people interested in international affairs, it’s a glimpse into how laws shape military operations and national security.
