China has appointed Zhang Shengmin, the head of the military anti-corruption agency, as vice chairman of the powerful Central Military Commission (CMC). This commission is headed by President Xi Jinping and plays a central role in the country’s military leadership. Zhang Shengmin’s appointment comes at a time when the Chinese army is facing significant corruption allegations, including among senior officers.
Zhang Shengmin is known for his work as secretary of the CMC’s Central Disciplinary Inspection Commission, where he oversees anti-corruption efforts within the Chinese armed forces. His appointment as vice chairman of the CMC underscores the importance China attaches to fighting corruption in the military. This decision was announced in the communiqué of the fourth plenary session of the party’s Central Committee, which ended on Thursday.
The CMC, led by Xi Jinping, has undergone several changes in recent years. The commission originally consisted of seven members, but only four remain. Former Vice Chairman He Weidong was recently investigated by China’s Defense Ministry for “serious crimes in the course of his duties” and expelled from both the party and the military.
These developments highlight the challenges facing China’s leadership in ensuring the integrity and effectiveness of its armed forces. Zhang Shengmin’s appointment could be seen as a signal that China is committed to further fighting corruption in the military and strengthening discipline within the armed forces.
