Jiang Zemin, China’s former president, died at the age of 96. Mr Jiang became leader of the Chinese Communist Party in 1989, in the aftermath of the massacre around Tiananmen Square. He served until 2002, overseeing China’s opening up to the West and the handover of Hong Kong from British to Chinese rule. The news of Mr Jiang’s death, from leukaemia, was announced by state media after days of protests against covid lockdowns that have rocked several major cities.
China’s authorities promised to combat “hostile forces”, whom they blame for stoking countrywide demonstrations against the country’s stringent anti-covid measures. University students, among the most vocal protesters, have been sent home from campuses and police have flooded the streets in order to prevent further dissent. Even so, clashes between demonstrators and police were reported in Guangzhou on Tuesday night.
