Leading China Expert: President Xi Jinping might soon be Toppled
According to the Express, a leading China analyst revealed that XI JINPING could soon be toppled and that Beijing is much more fragile economically and militarily "than it lets on".
Express reported that Mr Paul Monk spolke to Sky News Australia, and he revealed that China's economy is "more fragile than it lets on" in spite of the facade the regime projects about itself.
The leading author and expert also suggested that the Chinese military is much weaker than many suspect, and could face major difficulties if it pushes ahead with an invasion of Taiwan.
Xi Jinping marked the centenary of the ruling Communist Party in China last week.
In a message to rivals, President Xi warned that foreign powers will "get their heads bashed" if they attempt to bully or influence the country.
However, Mr Monk suggested that "ill-considered moves" by China could lead to its own collapse.
He warned that the Chinese Communist model of rule had "reached its use-by date".
He explained: "If you look beyond that facade, economically China is more fragile than it lets on. This is something that experts have discussed for a decade.
"The economic model of this very rapid growth is unstable, unsustainable, and major reforms are needed.
"Pundits say if reforms are not undertaken in the near future what you could see is a flatlining of Chinese growth as we saw with Japan in the 1990s.
"China wouldn't be engaging in the extraordinary levels of censorship and repression if it felt secure, if it felt legitimate, so there will be a legitimate crisis on the horizon.
"The danger of conflict erupting because of an ill-considered move by China has risen considerably.
"Xi has purged senior military ranks. While talk of an invasion of Taiwan has dominated, China may be more fragile militarily than we thought.
"Any difficulty in achieving the mission to invade Taiwan could end in its own regime collapse.
"It could lead to a crisis. He has purged both the officer core and the security services and he has surrounded himself with people who won't challenge him.
"Nobody who is not approved by the party is given a voice at all and outside news is systematically suppressed."
This comes as relations between the West and China has worsened in recent months over trade and the pandemic.
The issue of Taiwan is also a major source of tension between China and the US.
However, Cai Xia, a leading Chinese dissident and scholar, recently said the Communist regime is much weaker than it looks.
She said: “I recommend that the US be fully prepared for the possible sudden disintegration of the CCP.
“Xi Jinping’s overly suspicious and narrow-minded personality has led to continuous purges inside the party, which have brought extreme dissatisfaction among the middle and high-level officials. Everyone feels unsafe."
