The meeting stressed that it is imperative to thoroughly study and implement the spirit of the Fifth Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee. We should regard studying and implementing the plenary session spirit as a major political task of the Party for the present and period ahead, advance full and rigorous self-governance of the Party on an ongoing basis, and achieve greater progress in fostering a sound Party conduct and clean government within the government system. We must resolutely implement the spirit of the meeting of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee held on October 23, shoulder the political responsibility for rectification following inspection tours, and integrate inspection-driven rectification with all other work. We should earnestly study and act on the spirit of Xi Jinping’s important speech at the assembly marking the 90th anniversary of the victory of the Long March of the Chinese Workers’ and Peasants’ Red Army, vigorously carry forward the great Long March spirit, and work in unity to forge ahead on the new Long March. We shall fully apply the guiding principles from Xi Jinping’s important instructions concerning the magnitude-7.0 earthquake in Baqing County, Nagqu City, Xizang, and deliver solid, detailed work on disaster prevention, mitigation and relief. We need to earnestly learn and follow the spirit of Xi Jinping’s important congratulatory letter marking the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Central Institute of Socialism, give full play to the united front as a vital magic weapon, and pool wisdom from diverse quarters. We should thoroughly understand the spirit of Xi Jinping’s message to the 2026 Xiongan Forum on Global Governance, put into practice the Global Governance Initiative, and better serve the overarching national diplomatic agenda. The meeting emphasized earnest implementation of the 15th Five-Year Plan for the Protection and Inheritance of Cultural Heritage. We shall comprehensively sort out items, classify them, clarify ownership, identify current conditions, and get a full picture of cultural heritage resources. Protection standards shall be elevated to pursue development amid protection and ensure protection through development. Greater efforts shall go into revitalization and utilization so as to unlock the contemporary value of cultural heritage including red resources.

Channels for conflict resolution will be kept open to detect, intervene in and resolve disputes at an early stage.
