On October 16, the Communist Party of China (CPC) will convene in Beijing for a week-long gathering. The 20th National Congress of the CPC, a once-in-five-year event, will mark sweeping changes in the leadership of China’s ruling party and shape China's domestic politics and foreign policy for the coming five years and even longer. Looking ahead to the congress, we will examine the three main items on its agenda -- personnel appointments, amending the party constitution, and setting the policy direction for the next five years -- and assess how the likely outcomes in all three domains will impact Xi Jinping's third term, China's politics and economy, and its foreign policy including relations with India.
