The 19th CYLC Central Committee — the organization's central leadership, which comprises 170 members and 129 alternate members — was elected on Thursday at the closing session of the 19th CYLC National Congress.

习近平首先表示，2012年党的十八大以来，党的青年工作取得了重大成就、发生了深刻变革，党对共青团和青年工作的领导全面加强。

He expressed the CPC Central Committee's full trust in the Youth League and the country's young people.

The Party's central leadership has high expectations for the new leadership of the CYLC Central Committee, Xi said, calling for the leadership body to enhance its own development and lead the way for new progress in the cause of the Youth League and youth-related work.

习近平指出，党中央对团中央新一届领导班子寄予厚望，希望团中央加强自身建设，推动共青团事业和青年工作实现新的更大发展。

Xi then expounded on the need for the organization to beef up political guidance for the nation's young people, saying that only when young people are aspiring and willing to take on responsibilities, endure hardships and work hard, can they become a powerful force, and the development of the Party and the country be filled with hope.

习近平指出，要着力加强对广大青年的政治引领。青年人有理想、敢担当、能吃苦、肯奋斗，中国青年才会有力量，党和国家事业发展才能充满希望。

He highlighted the need to help young people firm up their ideals and beliefs, guide them to establish lofty communist ideals, build up their belief in socialism with Chinese characteristics and establish a firm political belief in following the leadership of the CPC.

习近平强调，要加强对广大青年的理想信念教育，引导广大青年树立共产主义远大理想，坚定中国特色社会主义共同理想，坚定听党话、跟党走的政治信念。
