Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang Ousted Amid Secrecy and Speculation

Qin Gang abruptly dismissed from his position as China's foreign minister after over a year in the role.
His removal was sudden and unexplained; the government has provided vague responses about the reasons.
Qin's tenure has been erased from official websites, suggesting he fell out of favor with leadership.
Analysts say the opaque handling highlights Xi Jinping's consolidation of power over foreign policy.
Wang Yi has temporarily taken over as foreign minister while the party decides on Qin's permanent replacement.
