Reuters: Chinese military paper warns a corrupt army does not win wars
The Chinese military's official newspaper warned on Sunday that a corrupt army would not win wars, three days after the government announced a former senior officer would be prosecuted for graft.
Serving and retired Chinese military officers as well as state media have questioned whether China's armed forces are too corrupt to fight and win a war.
President Xi Jinping has made weeding out corruption in the armed forces a top goal and several senior officers have been felled, including two of China's most senior former military officers, Xu Caihou and Guo Boxiong.
