The 79-year-old former leader touched Xi\u2019s shoulder and the two appeared to exchange words, but the current president seemed unmoved.

Xi, who in 2018 ended the two-term limit for presidents, is expected to be officially confirmed for a third term as CCP general secretary. He serves as both general secretary of the Communist Party, president and head of the armed forces, and is often referred to as \u201cParamount,\u201d or \u201cSupreme Leader.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Video circulated online showed a man trying to forcibly pull Hu from his seat, as Xi stared straight ahead and other officials averted their gazes. Hu appeared to reach for a sheet of paper on a folder in front of Xi, but Xi put his hand down on the sheet.<\/p>\n<p>A man identified by AFP as powerful legislator Li Zhanshu, who was seated on the other side of Hu away from Xi, gave Hu\u2019s folder to a steward and mopped his brow with a handkerchief.<\/p>\n<p>The incident was described as highly unusual given the careful management of every detail of such events.
