The Morning Standard
|July 26, 2023
Qin Gang, who became minister in December, replaced by Wang Yi
-
CHINA removed outspoken Foreign Minister Qin Gang from office on Tuesday and replaced him with his predecessor, Wang Yi, in a move that has already fuelled rumors over the personal lives and political rivalries of China's Communist Party elite.
Qin who has only been foreign minister since December-has not been seen in public for a month, missing several important official meetings and sending the rumour mill into overdrive.
In its announcement on the national evening news, state broadcaster CCTV gave no reason for Qin's removal. He had dropped out of sight almost a month ago and the Foreign Ministry has provided no information about his status.
