Televised confessions, human rights activists on clampdown, critics of the Communist Party going missing in Hong Kong and abroad,what does it all say about this regime, and what, if anything, does it say about Xi Jinping, China’s president and general secretary of the ruling Communist Party?

He has wielded his power to crack down on corruption, while also targeting human rights defenders and reining in dissent. Yet world leaders rarely seems to raise the issue of human rights, and welcome the Chinese leader and the world’s second largest economy with open arms.
