Chinese President Xi Jinping to leave China after 893 days

President Xi Jinping is set to leave mainland China after 893 days at home, even though he still trumpets a COVID zero policy that has isolated the world's No. The 2 economy is diplomatically poised to face rising geopolitical tensions.

The Chinese leader will head across the border to neighboring Hong Kong on Thursday and Friday, according to local media, for events marking 25 years of Chinese rule in the former British colony. Although China has sovereignty over Hong Kong, their border has been closed since early in the pandemic and Xi is expected to stay overnight in the Chinese tech hub of Shenzhen.
