Hey there, friends!
There’s some important news happening between China and South Korea, and we want to help you understand what’s going on. Let’s dive in! 🌊
What Happened?
On Tuesday night, South Korea’s President, Yoon Suk-yeol, announced something called “martial law.” Martial law is when the military takes control of the government in an emergency situation.
But guess what? Later that night, the lawmakers (the people who make the laws) voted against it! So, the President canceled the martial law early Wednesday morning. It was a quick change!
China’s Message
China is hoping that South Korea will make sure Chinese people living or visiting there stay safe during all this confusion. The Chinese government asked its citizens in South Korea to be careful and stay safe. 🧳✈️
Why Is This Important?
China and South Korea are neighbors in Asia, and they want to keep their friendship strong. When big things like martial law happen, it’s important for countries to talk and make sure everyone is okay.
China’s Position
China said that its views on what’s happening on the Korean Peninsula (that’s the area where North and South Korea are) haven’t changed.
Stay Informed
