President Xi Jinping rightly celebrates the success of China's "targeted poverty alleviation campaign," which by the end of 2020, had brought about 100 million of the intractably poor out of extreme poverty.

China must continue to fight poverty by reducing still-substantial relative poverty and closing the still-excessive wealth gap, primarily between rural and urban areas.
