China and the U.S. Chat About Trade on Video Call! 📞
Hey there! Have you ever had a video call with your friends? Well, guess what? On Friday, important leaders from China and the United States had a big video call too!
Who Talked to Whom?
Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng and U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent (that’s like the person in charge of money in the U.S.) chatted together. They talked about important things that affect both countries.
What Did They Discuss?
They discussed economic issues. That means they talked about money, trade, and how the two countries do business with each other. They agreed it’s super important for China and the U.S. to keep talking and working together.
Why Is This Important?
China and the U.S. are two of the biggest economies in the world! When they work together, it can help people in both countries and even around the globe. It could mean more jobs, better products, and new opportunities.
Concerns About Tariffs
China shared that they’re worried about new tariffs (that’s a fancy word for extra taxes) that the U.S. has put on Chinese goods. These tariffs can make things more expensive and might affect how the two countries trade.
What’s Next?
Both sides said they’ll keep talking about these important topics. That’s great news because when countries communicate, they can solve problems and make the world a better place! 🌍🤝
