Quick Glance: Xi Jinping's Visit to Vietnam: Navigating Complex Relations
  • Vietnam is expected to announce its participation in Mr. Xi's 'Community of Common Destiny', seen as a challenge to the US-led global order.

  • China will offer advanced railway technology to help upgrade Vietnam's transport infrastructure.

  • This includes a rail link from southern China to the Vietnamese port of Haiphong, passing through a region with some of Vietnam's richest rare earth deposits.

  • Certainly not publicly discussed will be the bitter territorial dispute in the South China Sea or Vietnam's grievances over Chinese dams on the Mekong river, yet public sentiment in Vietnam towards China can be more fiercely anti-Chinese than anywhere else in Southeast Asia.

Quick Glance: The Power and Limits of Xi Jinping
  • Xi may have more power than any Chinese leader since Mao Zedong, but he can't fully implement his policy preferences.

  • It's recognized that Xi Jinping is the most powerful leader in China since Mao Zedong.

  • Xi is the most powerful Chinese leader since Mao and not constrained by the party norms and institutions of the post-Mao era.

  • Xi recognized the bureaucracy problems and addressed these through the anti-corruption campaign, but still relies on the bureaucracy for policy implementation.
