白宮國宴名單證實周洪許兼任中辦副主任

美國白宮於24日為中國國家主席習近平舉行國宴1。根據美方公布的出席名單，港媒報導證實中共中央警衛局局長周洪許已兼任中共中央辦公廳副主任1。周洪許現年55歲，曾任陸軍將領1，自2021年前後開始擔任中央警衛局局長1。此舉打破了中央警衛局長極少公開參加領導人會談活動的傳統1。

中央警衛局隸屬中共中央辦公廳和中央軍委聯合參謀部，屬解放軍編制，級別為副大軍區級1。歷史上，鄧小平和江澤民時代的中央警衛局局長楊德中、由喜貴也曾同時擔任中央辦公廳副主任1。

A White House state dinner held on September 24 for Chinese President Xi Jinping has provided confirmation of a significant personnel development within China's top leadership structure 1. According to a guest list released by U.S. officials and reported by Hong Kong media, Zhou Hongxu, the director of the Chinese Communist Party's Central Guard Bureau, has assumed the concurrent position of deputy director of the Party's Central Committee Office 1.

Zhou Hongxu, 55 years old, is a former military officer who assumed leadership of the Central Guard Bureau around 2021 1. His public appearance at the White House state dinner marks a departure from longstanding protocol, as directors of the Central Guard Bureau have traditionally avoided high-profile participation in diplomatic events involving top leaders 1. The Central Guard Bureau operates under the joint authority of the Central Committee Office and the Central Military Commission's General Staff, maintains military status with a rank equivalent to a deputy military region 1. During the tenures of paramount leaders Deng Xiaoping and Jiang Zemin, the Central Guard Bureau directors Yang Dezhong and You Xigui also simultaneously served as deputies in the Central Committee Office 1.
