As the five years governmental term reaches the end this year it’s going to be a party congress in the now settled date, which is being hold the 18^th of October in Beijing, according to the news reports.

From this meeting there’s already the expectation of Xi Jinping, the current president, not only being confirmed his second five-year term but also more ‘stimulated’.

In the encounter the new companion and the officials behind him. But they are also going to talk about external issues such as the relationship that they are going to hold with the US and their implication with trade and North Korea’s nuclear program.

I mainly thought of this as a matter that everybody must know since China it’s involved. The reason why I think that it’s important it’s due to the fact that nowadays the decisions that are taken in the country are a worldwide concern, since China it’s likely to be, in matter of years, one of the most powerful countries on the earth.

And in my position I see the political choices as one of the key points of a country’s success, and since China, by now, it’s in the point to upgrade to a global power I find it crucial.
