China has selected a new leader to rule the world’s second-biggest economy.
Mr Xi will officially take power as national president in March.
He’s the son of one of the founding members of the Communist Party – and paid a visit to County Clare last February – including a stop off at the Cliffs Of Moher, Bunratty Castle and a dairy farm in Sixmilebridge.
During a speech today, Xi Jinping hinted at a more open relationship with the West.
