China's Communist Party must "turn the knife inward" to eliminate problems of discipline, including corruption, President Xi Jinping said, a new call to hunt down corrupt officials and those who corrupt them.

Xi has launched a sweeping anti-corruption campaign, in which over a million party officials, including two defence ministers, were prosecuted.

In the past two years, two former defence ministers have been expelled from the Communist Party for “serious violations of discipline,” a term commonly used to refer to corruption.

The FBI issued an urgent warning that the Chinese Communist Party plans to erode U.S. voters' trust in the government's support of Taiwan by manufacturing fake stories about various politicians, NBC News reported Monday evening.
