Accused of treason! China’s 2 former defense ministers have been sentenced to death by the Xi Jinping administration
China’s Xi Jinping administration sentenced two former defense ministers to death. According to media sources, the two top officials were charged with treason and conspiracy against power in addition to corruption. As soon as this incident came to the fore, there was an uproar in Chinese politics. This is the first time in China’s history that an official as high as the Ministry of Defense has been executed.
It is known that last Thursday a Chinese court sentenced former defense ministers Wei Fenghe and Li Shangfu to death on corruption charges. This judgment of the court was published in several Chinese media. Although this move was initially seen as an anti-corruption move. He was later accused of treason and conspiracy against power. Naturally, the entire incident has created a great mystery. The question has begun to arise, but has a great political conflict started in the halls of power in Communist China? Was the plot to remove President Xi Jinping from power?
Last Thursday, a Chinese court sentenced former defense ministers Wei Fenghe and Li Shangfu to death on corruption charges. This judgment of the court was published in several Chinese media.
Wei Fenghe was China’s defense minister from 2018 to 2023. Li Shangfu was then given the responsibility. But within a few months, Xi Jinping took the responsibility from him. In the same year, two top officials were sacked and speculation started. Finally, the Chinese government newspaper ‘PLA Daily’ wrote that these two top officers were sentenced to death. After this incident, no other military officer would dare to ‘betray’. Naturally, this accusation of ‘betrayal’ has started raising questions in the lobby of the Chinese administration. However, nothing has been disclosed in this regard.
It should be noted that President Xi Jinping has been trying to maintain his control over the army in China for a long time. Under these circumstances, such action against top military officials is seen as a ploy to tighten control over power. However, no information about China’s internal politics and military is made public. Here too it is not entirely clear why they were sentenced to death.
