Qin Gang Replaced as Chinese Foreign Minister Amid Mystery Surrounding His Disappearance
Comprehensive report by Fu Ming, July 25, 2023
In a surprising turn of events, Qin Gang, who had been serving as China’s national leader for just over four months, has been abruptly replaced. Rumors of his month-long disappearance have sparked speculation and confusion, with the official reason for his dismissal remaining undisclosed. Wang Yi, the Director of the Foreign Affairs Office of the Chinese Communist Party, has assumed the role of senior foreign minister.
The decision to remove Qin Gang was made during the Fourth Session of the Standing Committee of the 14th National People’s Congress of the Communist Party of China. At the meeting, Chinese President Xi Jinping signed Presidential Decree No. 8, appointing Wang Yi as the new Minister of Foreign Affairs. Chairman Zhao Leji presided over the session, though no explanation was provided for Qin Gang’s removal or his whereabouts during his absence.
At 70 years old, Wang Yi has become the oldest foreign minister in the history of the Chinese Communist Party. Qin Gang, on the other hand, at 57 years old, had been the youngest foreign minister since the establishment of the CCP and the youngest deputy leader of the CCP at the state level. His brief tenure as Foreign Minister makes him the shortest-serving in CCP history.
The sudden personnel change within the CCP is a noteworthy development requiring swift attention. However, as of now, the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Communist Party of China has not been updated to reflect these changes. Despite his dismissal, Qin Gang’s position is still listed on the website.
The lack of promptness in updating the official website has raised eyebrows, prompting former media personality Gao Yu to express her concerns. Gao Yu stated on Twitter, “Why hasn’t the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs made the necessary changes? Is it because Qin Gang is still a member of the State Council? That should not supersede being a Politburo member like Wang Yi! The delay in updating is questionable!” Gao Yu further suggested that Wang Yi may serve as a transitional minister for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs given his age.
The whereabouts of Qin Gang have been under close scrutiny for an entire month, and the sudden announcement of his replacement has caused a stir on the internet. Public opinion and online traffic have surged, with increased activity and discussions surrounding the development.
Netizens have taken to social media platforms to express their opinions, as seen in a tweet: “Ms. Li is not your teacher. The news broadcast on the night of the 25th has sparked significant political public opinion. Network traffic might double in an instant.”
Meanwhile, CCP network managers have reportedly taken internal measures to address the sudden surge in public opinion. Additionally, there are suspicions of the authorities using Wu Yifan once again as a diversionary tactic to deflect attention from the situation.

According to reports from the official CCP media, on July 25, the Fourth Session of the Standing Committee of the 14th National People’s Congress of the Communist Party of China decided to remove Qin Gang from the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs and appoint Wang Yi as Minister of Foreign Affairs. Chinese President Xi Jinping signed Presidential Decree No. 8. The meeting was chaired by Chairman Zhao Leji.
However, the officer did not report the reason for Qin Gang’s dismissal, nor did he explain his whereabouts.
Wang Yi, State Councilor and Director of the Foreign Affairs Office of the Chinese Communist Party, is now 70 years old and has become the oldest foreign minister in the history of the Chinese Communist Party. Qin Gang, who was dismissed, is 57 years old. He was the youngest foreign minister since the establishment of the CCP and the youngest deputy leader of the CCP at the state level. He took office in March this year and became the shortest foreign minister in the history of the CCP.
This major personnel change to the CCP is clearly a temporary and unavoidable decision. At this time, there is no time to change the web page of the official CCP website. Currently, Qin Gang still claims the position of Minister of Foreign Affairs on the official website.
Former media personality Gao Yu tweeted:
“The column of the foreign minister on the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the content has not been changed yet. What are you waiting for? Is it because Qin Gang is still a member of the State Council? That is not as big as Politburo member Wang Yi! The speed of this change is questionable!”
Gao Yu also said: “Wang Yi is already 70 years old and should be the transitional minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.”
The location of Qin Gang has been closely watched by the outside world for a whole month, and currently, the sudden announcement of personnel changes by the Chinese Communist Party has caused a tsunami on the Internet.
Netizen tweeted “Ms Li is not your teacher @whyyoutouzhele” because of the great political public opinion on the news broadcast on the night of the 25th, network traffic could double in an instant:
CCP network managers have already started using internally to deal with sudden public opinion:
CCP authorities are suspected of using Wu Yifan again to divert attention from speech:
