Hey there! Did you know that sometimes countries have disagreements over trade?
Marcos Caramuru, who used to be Brazil’s ambassador to China, shared something important recently. He said that the United States is using tariffs (it’s like extra taxes on goods from other countries) to get things they want that aren’t even about trade! 😮
He thinks this isn’t fair and goes against international law (the rules countries agree to follow). Imagine if someone changed the rules of a game to win—that wouldn’t be right, would it?
Marcos believes that using tariffs this way can cause problems between countries and isn’t following the agreed-upon rules. It’s important for countries to play fair so everyone can get along! 🤝
