'No sign of coup in China': Experts confident Xi Jinping still in control, dismiss social media rumours

Social media is abuzz with claims of a coup in China, but the credibility of these claims is doubtful, claim experts. Speculations that Chinese President Xi Jinping had lost control ran wild on the internet after he was found missing from the public eye following his return from SCO summit in Uzbekistan.

With no official confirmation from the Chinese Communist Party or the state media and with all these updates from anonymous users, who are neither verified nor credible, experts are confident these rumours are just rumours and false speculations.

So, here’s what we know so far:

Is Xi Jinping under house arrest?

The last time the Chinese President was seen publicly was at the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit in Uzbekistan’s Samarkand. The summit was also attended by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

There's a strong possibility the Chinese premier could be in quarantine following the country's strict 'Zero Covid Policy’. Under the policy, every individual who enters China from abroad must undergo quarantine.

Are international and domestic commercial flights in China being cancelled?

There are also unverified reports that very few passenger flights are flying over the Chinese capital and all trains and buses have been cancelled in the last few days.

Beijing Capital International Airport's website shows that some flights were cancelled, several others were scheduled, slightly delayed, or had already landed.

China expert Aadil Brar shared flight data and said there is no disruption of flights. He also shared visuals of public briefings by senior Chinese officials, suggesting that the government is functioning normally. Political activities in Beijing are as usual. Latest Xinwen Lianbo.

So quaint for a "coup".

Has Xi Jinping lost control?

Two former ministers were sentenced to death and four officials were sent to life in jail last week

When this story broke a few days ago it just smelled of BS and still does.

If people will use “Xi” as a keyword or title search term, they will find the usual trolls here at FR per the thread stories they posted.

“There’s a strong possibility the Chinese premier could be in quarantine following the country’s strict ‘Zero Covid Policy’. Under the policy, every individual who enters China from abroad must undergo quarantine.”

Xi Jinping is not Premier.

A stupid thing for someone to say, especially one who calls others non-credible experts.

This moron doesn’t even know what Xi is and that there is a premier who is not Xi. Doesn’t indicate credibility.

Xi is most likely under heavy security as he fights the CCP for control of China.

A Magic 8 Ball has more credibility than Business Insider.

Business Insider is paid by Winnie the Pooh to lead the western “China is Superman” cult.
