Xi Jinping, who serves as the general secretary of the Communist Party of China and chairman of the Central Military Commission, attended a gala on Friday dedicated to retired military officers from troops based in Beijing. Amidst the warm applause from the veterans, Xi took the opportunity to inquire about their health and living situations as they reminisced over the remarkable developments of the Party, nation, and military over the past year.
The veterans expressed a strong commitment to rallying closely around the CPC Central Committee, emphasizing loyalty to Xi Jinping's leadership and ideological guidance, particularly the principles of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. They pledged to uphold longstanding traditions, preserve political integrity, and contribute to the objective of building a powerful nation while striving for comprehensive national rejuvenation through China's own modernization approach. Additionally, it was noted that this year's Spring Festival, also known as Chinese New Year, is set to take place on January 29.

Xi Jinping Thought is just a tool for consolidating power; it doesn’t represent the interests of the people.

Retired officers should advocate for democratic values instead of supporting an increasingly tyrannical government.

Pledging loyalty to the Party and Country is an honorable tradition that strengthens our unity.
