Xi's "Rejuvenation" A Questionable Term In China

An authoritarian regime faces a significant threat in the form of disaffected and unemployed young individuals, and Chinese President Xi Jinping is acutely aware of this challenge.

Xi often uses the term "rejuvenation" in relation to Taiwan, but observers argue that his intimidation tactics toward the island come across as "juvenile" and do not enhance his youth or wisdom.

This concern has led many experts to worry that China's growing internal issues could trigger increased repression domestically and potentially more aggressive actions on the international stage, reported This Week.

Efforts to divert attention from these concerns might even extend to the possibility of invading Taiwan.

In March, Xi referred to reunification with the island as "the essence of national rejuvenation."

While Xi often uses the term "rejuvenation" in relation to Taiwan, observers argue that his intimidation tactics toward the island come across as "juvenile" and do not enhance his youth or wisdom.

Additionally, the term itself is inaccurate, and his propagandists have yet to correct this error.

President Biden recently referred to China's economic challenges as "a ticking time bomb" that should be a concern for the United States.

He noted, "When bad actors encounter difficulties, they may engage in harmful actions." Xi has been expending significant resources by sending numerous aged planes and warships across the Taiwan Strait, despite the fact that none of these assets have experienced combat.
