The Chinese regime has drastically tightened security around the country, placing parts of China under “wartime” security measures, as the biggest event on the regime’s calendar kicks off this week in Beijing.

For the next two weeks, the annual “two sessions” will be held in Beijing. That is, the meeting of the regime’s rubber-stamp legislature, the National People’s Congress (NPC), and its political advisory body, the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference.
