The 20th Politburo of the Chinese Communist Party (Chinese: 中国共产党第二十届中央政治局) was elected by the 1st Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee on 23 October 2022, shortly following the 20th National Congress. It was nominally preceded by the 19th Politburo.
Background
According to party convention, party leaders aged 68 or above are not eligible to remain in the Politburo.[1] Prior to the Congress, CCP general secretary Xi Jinping stated that he would not be retiring, and instead would seek a third term of the paramount leader.[1]
On 22 October 2022, following publication of the list of members of the new Central Committee, it was reported that four of the seven Politburo members from the 19th Politburo were not on the list.[2] Li Zhanshu, aged 72, and Han Zheng, aged 68 were expected to retire from the Politburo following the party convention.[1] While Li Keqiang and Wang Yang were eligible to serve another term, as they are both aged 67, their absence from the list of the new Central Committee members instead means they will go into an early retirement.[3] The three remaining Standing Committee members from the 19th Politburo were Xi Jinping, Wang Huning, and Zhao Leji.[2]
