Add article description

National leaders is the generic version of "Party and State Leaders" (党和国家领导人), a political jargon used by official documents and by official media in China, referring to specific senior officials of the People's Republic of China. The range of Party and State Leaders are prescribed by the national civil servant system. Only officials holding the rank of "chief positions at the state level" (国家级正职, or commonly "national level" 正国级) or "deputy positions at the state level" (国家级正职, or commonly "sub-national level" 副国级) are considered Party and State Leaders.
