"Corruption is the greatest threat to our party, and anti-corruption is the most thorough self-revolution." At the Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, General Secretary Xi Jinping fully affirmed the achievements made in promoting comprehensive and strict governance of the Party and the fight against corruption since the new era from the strategic height of promoting Chinese-style modernization, and deeply analyzed the current situation of the fight against corruption, emphasizing: "We must resolutely clarify all kinds of wrong understandings, clarify the fog of thought, and further strengthen the determination and confidence in the fight against corruption."
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core has led the whole party to deepen the comprehensive and strict governance of the Party and the fight against corruption with the high degree of self-revolution and the mission and responsibility of "offending thousands of people and living up to 1.4 billion", and insisted on fighting corruption and eliminating corruption. It has unprecedented strength and the results are obvious to all. In the past year, there have been no forbidden areas for "fighting tigers". At the same time, "flies, corruption, ants, corruption, and corruption" have been punished, and more than 700,000 unhealthy practices and corruption problems around the people have been investigated and dealt with. Since the new era, the Party, the hearts of the army, and the people have been unprecedentedly united and excited. One important reason is that our Party has always punished corruption with a zero-tolerance attitude. In his important speech, General Secretary Xi Jinping made a high summary with winning the "two historical initiatives": "We have won the historical initiative to ensure that the Party does not deteriorate, change color, and taste, and won the historical initiative to unite and lead all the people to work together for the great cause of building a strong country and national rejuvenation." At the same time, we must be clear-headed that the situation of the anti-corruption struggle is still grim and complex, and the task of eradicating the breeding soil and conditions of corruption is still arduous and heavy. Judging from the reality, the stock of corruption has not been cleared yet, and the incremental volume is still happening. From the perspective of ideological understanding, some people still have some wrong judgments and cognitions about the situation. Only by resolutely clarifying all kinds of wrong understandings and clearing the fog of thought can we further build consensus and enhance our awareness of action.
It should be noted that corruption and power are often born together, which determines that fighting corruption is a long-term historical process. As long as the soil and conditions for breeding corruption still exist, the fight against corruption will always be on the way. A thorough analysis of the corrupt elements investigated and dealt with since the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. The vast majority of people's violations of discipline and laws continued from before the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China to after the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. This is both an increase and a stock. In the face of new anti-corruption technologies, means, methods, etc., corrupt elements are increasingly unable to hide. Corruption damages fairness and justice, undermines the business environment, and disrupts economic order. Only by resolutely removing this cancer can the vast number of cadres do things cleanly and boldly, and enable all types of business entities to start their own businesses with peace of mind.
General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: "To understand the fight against corruption, we must have a historical vision and strategic height, and focus on realizing the Party's mission and tasks." What is a historical vision? The key is to be good at learning lessons from history, grasp the value purpose from our party’s century-long struggle, and realize that our party must always adhere to its original aspiration and mission, and must eliminate the biggest threat of corruption. From a strategic perspective, we are currently in a critical period of Chinese-style modernization construction, and the domestic and international environment are undergoing extremely extensive and profound changes. Only by unswervingly fighting corruption and maintaining the health and advanced purity of the Party can we walk steadily and walk the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics and always be invincible in the great changes unseen in a century. For party members and cadres, in the face of various temptations and hunting, we should think more about the revolutionary ideals that our party strives for, think about countless revolutionary ancestors who sacrificed their lives and shed their blood, think about the weight of the party and the people in their hearts, think about the consequences and harms of corruption, and think about the different destinies of the world's Marxist parties. Only by rectifying the source and purging the turbid and promoting the good and honest can we truly be stable and safeguarded, and always maintain the political character of the Communists.
We must be extremely clear-headed and extremely determined in the situation of the anti-corruption struggle, and we must never relax and we must never be lenient. We must maintain strategic determination and high-pressure situation, never stop at one step and never give in, and promote the integration of not daring to be corrupt, not being able to be corrupt, and not wanting to be corrupt, treat both the symptoms and the root causes and treat them systematically. On this major issue that concerns the people's support and future and destiny, we must deeply grasp the historic achievements made in the fight against corruption in the new era, and firmly firmly fight the tough battle, protracted war and overall war against corruption.
