Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, on Monday called for resolutely winning the tough, protracted and all-out battle against corruption.

Xi, also Chinese president and chairman of the Central Military Commission, emphasized rigorous Party governance with the spirit of reform when addressing the fourth plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.

Xi said unprecedented efforts have been made to advance full and rigorous Party governance and the fight against corruption since the beginning of the new era, yielding widely recognized results.

Confronted with significant challenges in the fight against corruption, the Party has remained committed to investigating and addressing all corruption cases to maintain the integrity of officials, Xi said.

But he also noted that the fight against corruption remains "a grave and complex challenge," calling for strengthening resolve and confidence in this regard.

Xi emphasized the importance of making greater progress in governing the Party to ensure it remains the strong leadership core in building socialism with Chinese characteristics and to guarantee the steady advancement of Chinese modernization. Emphasizing concrete, targeted, and regular political oversight, Xi called for upholding the centralized and unified leadership of the Party Central Committee, and ensuring the implementation of the committee's decisions and arrangements, so as to form synergy to overcome difficulties in reform and promote high-quality development.

Noting that strengthening the Party's discipline building is a regular task, Xi urged efforts to guide Party members and cadres to practice self-discipline.

Investigation and punishment for Party conduct violations and corruption should be carried out simultaneously, Xi said, urging zero-tolerance for Party conduct violations and firm stance against corruption.

Calling for improving the evaluation mechanism for the implementation of full and rigorous Party self-governance, Xi said that continued efforts should be made to promote full and rigorous Party self-governance at the grassroots level.

Emphasizing that discipline inspection and supervision organs are an important force in promoting the Party's self-reform and are trusted by the Party and the people, Xi said the organs should deepen reform of the discipline inspection and supervision system, and improve discipline inspection and anti-corruption capability.

Members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee Li Qiang, Zhao Leji, Wang Huning, Cai Qi and Ding Xuexiang attended the meeting.

Li Xi, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and secretary of the CCDI, presided over the meeting.
