Chinese President Xi Jinping has struck a stridently nationalistic tone in his closing address to the annual session of the ceremonial parliament at which term limits on his rule were abolished.
Mr. Xi told the nearly 3,000 delegates to the National People’s Congress on Tuesday that “not one inch” of Chinese territory would ever be separated from the nation.
The congress’ most significant achievement was the passage of a constitutional amendment ending term limits on the president and vice president, allowing Mr. Xi to rule indefinitely.
