Hey kids! Did you know that sometimes countries have big disagreements? π’ Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi believes that fighting isn’t the answer. He says that when countries have problems, they should talk to each other instead of using force.
Mr. Wang thinks that using weapons and military power can make problems worse and cause more hurt feelings. He also worries that using force can lead to more conflicts in the future.
He mentioned a place called Iran, where there’s a big discussion about nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is a powerful way to make electricity, but it can also be used to make dangerous weapons. Mr. Wang believes that Iran has the right to use nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, like making electricity to light up their homes and schools. But he also wants to make sure that they don’t make weapons.
He suggests that all the countries involved should sit down together and make an agreement. This way, everyone can be sure that Iran is using nuclear energy safely. It’s like when you make a deal with your friends to share toys fairly! π€
Mr. Wang also talked about the importance of peace in the Middle East, a region where there have been many conflicts. He said that the Palestinian people should have their own home, and that everyone should work together to make this happen.
He believes that stronger countries should help smaller countries, not bully them. After all, it’s important to be kind and fair, just like on the playground! ποΈ
Mr. Wang shared these thoughts during a visit to France, where he met with other leaders to talk about peace and cooperation.
Together with France, China wants to promote peace and encourage countries to solve problems by talking and understanding each other.
Isn’t it great when everyone tries to get along? Let’s hope all countries can find peaceful solutions! πβοΈ
