【不满习对外树敌、对内毁香港和台湾「一国两制」】
《华尔街日报》周三(16日)引述中共内部人士称,一些仍有发言权的退休领导人,最近公开反对习近平打破既定领导层继承制度的愿望,反对者包括前总理朱镕基。
报道说,前总理朱镕基私下对习近平的以“国进民退”、国企为中心的政策提出质疑。另多名老干部不满习对外全面树敌,对内毁坏香港和台湾的“一国两制”。 2002年11月19日,时任中国总理朱镕基访问香港,在礼宾府接受港府宴请时的发表讲话,这番说话到现在还不断被人引用。 他说:“如果香港搞不好,不但你们(港府官员)有责任,我们(中央政府)也有责任!香港回归祖国了,如果在我们手里搞坏了,那我(中央政府)岂不成了民族罪人?”

Party elders have started to push back against some of Xi's key moves, including his (now-finalized?) efforts to get a third term, and also his state-centric economic push. Former premier Zhu Rongji is mentioned by name as one of the elders unhappy with current policy. (3/x)

Still, it's worth noting that Xi's seeming political invincibility has now come into question, after very real missteps on both foreign policy (Russia/Ukraine among others) and the economy. Perhaps the Party Congress will be a bit more interesting than we thought? (5/end)
