The State Council of China issued a personnel appointment and removal notice on Tuesday (June 14). The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Le Yucheng was transferred to the Deputy Director of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, to avoid the position of Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Le Yucheng.Relevant persons analyzed that this means that Le Yucheng's career has obviously suffered setbacks. This year, Le Yucheng, 59, has basically lost the opportunity to promote the promotion level and may retire after the age of 60 next year.
According to the official website of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, Le Yucheng currently ranks first among the four deputy directors of the bureau.Last week, Xu Lin, the director of the Journalism Office of the State Council and the deputy director of the Central Propaganda Department, was reorganized as the director of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and showed that Le Yucheng took over as the director of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television.According to the regulations of the 60 -year -old retirement of senior officials at the deputy ministerial level, the deputy director of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television may be the last stop of Leyu Cheng's career.
Earlier, Le Yucheng ranked first only after the leadership of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Qi Yu, the secretary of the party committee, ranked first among the deputy minister.
Le Yucheng is also an alternate member of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. However, after the more important deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was transferred to the Deputy Director of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, Le Yucheng was likely to lose its entry at the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in the second half of this year.Qualification of the new Central Committee.
Le Yucheng has been responsible for Russia, Eastern Europe and Central Asian affairs for a long time.In 1986, after graduating from Leducheng University, he entered the work of the Soviet Union of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He successively served as the Second Secret of the Chinese Embassy in Russia.The Director of Policy Research and Director of the Policy Planning Department, and the assistant to the Minister of Foreign Affairs in 2011.
In 2013, Le Yucheng served as the Chinese ambassador to Kazakhstan, and was transferred to the Chinese Ambassador to India in the second year and entered the deputy ministerial level.During the two years when Le Yucheng served as Ambassador to India, Chinese President Xi Jinping and Indian Prime Minister Modi realized mutual visits in his hometown.In 2016, Le Yucheng told the Indian media when he stepped down as the Ambassador to India: In 19 months, I was lucky to witness the turningties of the Sino -Indian relations, and the two sides moved from the diaphragm to interaction and cooperation.I witnessed the intimate and frequent interaction between the leaders of the two countries, and I was fortunate to accompany and personally experienced the wonderful moments of President Xi's visit to India and Premier Modi's visit to China.
Le Yucheng is known as a pen ambassador in the diplomatic circle.In addition to writing in Chinese official media and professional diplomatic media, while serving as the Chinese ambassador to India, Le Yucheng has published articles in media such as Hindu and Degan Pioneers many times.
In 2016, Le Yucheng served as the deputy director of the Office of the Central Foreign Affairs Leading Group, and returned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 2018 as the Deputy Minister.With the approaching of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the Chinese government, Le Yucheng was once regarded as one of the candidates for the next foreign minister in China.But this post adjustment means that Le Yucheng has no chance to return to the diplomatic system.
Candidates who are considered to be the next foreign minister in China are Liu Jieyi, the current director of the Taiwan Affairs Office, and Liu Jianchao, former deputy director of the Office of the Central Foreign Affairs Committee.Because Liu Jianchao has just been promoted to the Minister of the United States recently, Liu Jieyi, who was born in the diplomatic system, became a popular candidate for the next foreign minister.In 2013, Wang Yi served as the Minister of Foreign Affairs from the position of director of the State Council.
Another analysis believes that the frustration of Le Yucheng's career may be related to his judgment on the situation of Russia and Ukraine.On February 24 this year, Russia suddenly launched special military operations on Ukraine. China did not seem to have fully predicted and prepared for this. It was passive on the withdrawal of overseas Chinese and responding to Western accusations.Le Yucheng, as senior officials in Russia and Eastern European affairs, may not make a more accurate judgment on the outbreak of the Russian and Ukraine War and the trend.
On February 4 this year, Russian President Putin, who came to China to attend the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics, held talks with Xi Jinping.Le Yucheng emphasized during the interview with the media after the talks. Sino -Russian relations are not capped, there is no end station, only gas stations.
After the outbreak of the Russian and Ukraine War, Western public opinion was based on Sino -Russian relations and did not block the top, accusing China of secretly supporting Russia to launch the Ukraine War.China emphasizes that its position in Russia and Ukraine is objective and fair, and hopes that all parties will resolve conflicts peacefully.
