Hey there! Have you heard about what’s happening between the United States and South Korea? π Let’s dive in and find out!
On February 10th, U.S. President Donald Trump made a big decision. He decided to add a 25% tax, called a tariff, on all steel and aluminum that comes into the United States from other countries. π οΈπ§²
Steel and aluminum are metals used to make lots of things, like cars, bicycles, and even soda cans! ππ΄ββοΈπ₯€
This decision has made many people around the world pay attention. In South Korea, people are worried. Some think that the U.S. is just trying to pressure other countries and that it won’t have a big effect. But others feel it’s not fair and could hurt their economy. π
They believe that these new tariffs might make it harder for South Korean businesses that sell steel and aluminum to the U.S. This could lead to problems for workers and the economy in South Korea. It might also cause trouble for global trade between countries. π
But what do you think? Should countries put tariffs on each other’s products? It’s an important question that affects people around the world, including you! π€
