Xi Jinping is set to be handed a norm-busting third term as president on Friday, capping a rise that has seen him become China’s most powerful leader in generations.
BEIJING, China —
Those issues have been avoided at this week’s National People’s Congress , a carefully choreographed event that is also set to appoint Xi ally Li Qiang as the new premier. And on Friday they are set to elect the country’s next president, according to an official schedule provided by the NPC — a position certain to go to Xi.
That model imposed term limits on the largely ceremonial role of the presidency, with Xi’s predecessors Jiang Zemin and Hu Jintao relinquishing power after 10 years in office. But the beginning of his unprecedented third term leading China comes as the world’s second-largest economy faces major headwinds, from slowing growth and a troubled real estate sector to a declining birth rate.
