Three Steps to Modernize China's National Defense and Military in the New Era
In his report to the 19th CPC National Congress, Xi Jinping outlined a three-step plan for China's military modernization.
As the first step, the plan aims to achieve substantial progress by 2020 in improving the quality and efficiency of the military services and upgrading their combat capabilities - this in response to new global military technology trends and new national security needs - especially through the expanded use of mechanization and informationization solutions.
The second step calls for basic modernization of China's national defense and military services by 2035 through modernizing military theory, organizational structure, service personnel, and weaponry.
The final step will be the transformation of China's military into a world-class military by the mid-21st century.
