对于习近平来说，这是2022年罕见的亮点，这是动荡的一年，其顶点是前所未有的街头抗议活动，随后他的零新冠病毒政策突然逆转，冠状病毒感染在世界上人口最多的国家肆虐。
It was a rare highlight for Xi in 2022, a tumultuous year capped by unprecedented street protests followed by the sudden reversal of his zero-COVID policy and coronavirus infections rampaging across the world’s most populous country.

A simple “Are you okay?” was enough for Stella (not her real name), 30 years old, to open the floodgates: “Five months after the Shanghai lockdown, we are still locked up in China. We don’t know if we will be able to go outside next weekend or even leave our apartment because we are still at risk of being quarantined at the slightest contact in the building. This constant uncertainty is exhausting. I want to go out, to see the world,” said the young woman, sitting on a mattress in a gym in the city center
一个简单的”你还好吗？” 就足以让30岁的斯特拉（化名）打开闸门:”上海封锁五个月后，我们仍然被关在中国。 因为还在建筑物内稍有接触就会被隔离的危险,所以不知道下周末是否可以外出,甚至可以离开公寓。 这种不断的不确定性令人精疲力竭。 我想出去看看世界。” 年轻女子坐在市中心一家健身房的床垫上说道

For three years, China’s leader, Xi Jinping, fought a remorseless battle against COVID-19. He called it a “people’s war”—a national struggle to defeat an unseen foe and save lives. The contest locked families in their homes for weeks, strangled the economy, and closed the country to the world. Other governments that failed to contain the pandemic may be indifferent to death and suffering, the message was, but not the Chinese Communist Party, which cares about life above all else.
And then, poof! Xi gave up.
中国国家主席习近平连续3年与新冠肺炎展开了无情的斗争。 他称之为”人民战争”——一场为击败看不见的敌人、拯救生命而进行的民族斗争。 这场竞赛把家庭锁在家里好几个星期，扼杀了经济，使国家与世界隔绝。 其他未能控制疫情的政府也许对死亡和痛苦漠不关心，但中共并不关心，因为中共最关心的是生命。
然后，噗！ 习近平放弃了。

Several sources told DW that police in large cities like Shanghai have been randomly checking people’s phones on the street or on subways. Police have demanded people provide personal information and immediately remove apps like Telegram, Twitter or Instagram.
Others have said they were called by police and had their phones searched by authorities.
“Police warned me not to use Telegram and asked me to stop sharing information about the pandemic through the software,” said one protester with the surname Lin, who declined to be identified by his full name due to security concerns.

多位消息人士告诉德国之声，上海等大城市的警察一直在街头或地铁上随机检查人们的手机。 警方要求人们提供个人信息，并立即删除 Telegram、Twitter 或 Instagram 等应用程序。
其他人则表示，他们接到了警方的电话，并被当局搜查了他们的手机。
一名姓林的抗议者说：“警察警告我不要使用 Telegram，并要求我停止通过该软件分享有关大流行的信息。”出于安全考虑，他拒绝透露全名。

People in the Chinese manufacturing hub of Guangzhou clashed with white hazmat-suited riot police on Tuesday night, online videos showed, the latest in a string of protests that escalated over the weekend over stringent Covid-19 lockdowns.
The clashes, which follow protests in Shanghai, Beijing and elsewhere, erupted as China posts record numbers of Covid cases daily and health officials, including in the southern region around Guangzhou, announced a slight loosening of the curbs.
Mainland China’s biggest wave of civil disobedience since the 1989 Tiananmen protests comes as its economy sputters after growing at breakneck rates for decades.
That era of prosperity was fundamental for the social contract between the Communist Party and a population whose freedoms have been dramatically curtailed since President Xi Jinping took power 10 years ago…….
网络视频显示,中国制造业中心广州市民周二晚上与身穿白色防暴服的防暴警察发生冲突,这是上周末因新冠肺炎的严格封锁而升级的一系列抗议活动中的最新一幕。
继上海、北京等地示威之后,中国每天出现创纪录的新冠肺炎患者,广州周边南部地区保健当局也宣布放宽限制,从而爆发了冲突。
中国大陆自1989年天安门事件以来最大的一波民间不服从浪潮出现之际，中国大陆经济在几十年来以惊人的速度增长后出现动荡。
这个繁荣的时代对于共产党和人民之间的社会契约至关重要，因为自十年前习近平主席执政以来，他们的自由已经大大减少。
