Page 3 - Resolution of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China on the Revised Constitution of the Communist Party of China

and establishing the guiding role of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese

stages of the work of the Party and the country.

The Congress affirms that, over the past century, the Party has always stayed

Chinese people in writing the most magnificent chapter in the millennia-long
history of the Chinese nation. In doing so, it has made great achievements and
accumulated valuable experience. The Congress approves the incorporation of the

Party’s original aspiration and founding mission and its major achievements and
historical experience over the past century into the Party Constitution. Having the

courage to fight and the mettle to win gives the Party and the people unassailable
strength. All the achievements were made through persistent hard work of the

Party and the people. The Congress agrees to add to the Party Constitution a
statement on carrying forward our fighting spirit and building up our fighting

These additions are of great importance for inspiring all Party members to
remain confident in our history, exhibit greater historical initiative, stay committed

to the Party’s original aspiration and founding mission, pass on the traditions of
revolution, fully appreciate the contemporary features of the great new struggle,

and unite and lead Chinese people of all ethnic groups in achieving new successes

journey of the new era. They will enable us to rally the will and strength of the
whole Party and the entire nation for realizing the Second Centenary Goal and the
