FILE - In this photo released by Xinhua News Agency, Xi Jinping, center, general secretary of the Communist Party of China talks to sailors onboard the Haikou navy destroyer during his inspection of the Guangzhou military theater of operations of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) in Guangzhou, China on Dec. 8, 2012. When Xi Jinping came to power in 2012, it wasn't clear what kind of leader he would be. His low-key persona during a steady rise through the ranks of the Communist Party gave no hint that he would evolve into one of modern China's most dominant leaders, or that he would put the economically and militarily ascendant country on a collision course with the U.S.-led international order.
