Vietnam unanimously elected Communist Party General Secretary To Lam as president for a five-year term, consolidating his control over both the party and the state.

The move departs from Vietnam’s tradition of shared leadership, in which the jobs have typically been held by different people, and echoes power structures in China under Xi Jinping and neighboring Laos.

It has been widely expected since Lam’s reelection as Communist Party head in January, when observers noted that his consolidation of party authority positioned him to assume the presidency as well.

    What logic? You are making wild claims and assumptions that have nothing to do with reality, because you get all of your information from the CIA.

    You can’t say MAGA is bad without agreeing China is bad for the same reasons. You also can’t say China is good without agreeing MAGA is good for the same reasons.

    Yes, MAGA is totally a meritocracy. wow so smart.

    By the way, the source for your article IS FUCKING RADIO FREE ASIA, A CIA OPERATION.

    No, the Chinese Government did not ban winnie the pooh nor the Christopher Robin movie.

    Here’s a way to purchase it. Right now. https://baike.baidu.com/item/克里斯托弗·罗宾/22407179

    Jesus Christ you people do no actual fucking research. and yes I mean you people in the most racist way possible since you people are too racist to think of chinese people as living breathing human beings.

    Like Jesus fucking Christ a movie gets delayed by TWO FUCKING MONTHS and you make up this massive story about how a character is banned because some white people think it looks like an elected leader.
