Mr. Xi may now have even greater power, and the question will be how he chooses to use it.

I’m sure this guy has a brain. People of China love this guy, his way of dictatorship is completely different than of other countries. So far it definately works and that’s why the Chinese goverment doesn’t want to make any changes. He builds the power and respect for China all over the world unlike US which is shrinking in power Day by Day. I would definately compare Putin and Mr.Xi with their similarities such as dictatorship, while citizens of each country have a respect and trust in these leaders. Not that I like their way of leading their countries, however it’s some kind on their way of democratic socialism, my number one of our country is democracy, even though sometimes it’s questionable. It is only matter of time when China surpasses the overall economy of any country in the world if not already.
