Trouble Between Taiwan and China: Journalists Can’t Visit Anymore! ๐ฐโ
Hey there! Did you hear about what’s happening between Taiwan and China? Let me tell you all about it!
For over 20 years, journalists from China and Taiwan have been visiting each other’s countries. They write news stories and help people understand what’s going on across the Taiwan Straits (that’s the sea between Taiwan and China!). ๐
But recently, the government in Taiwan decided to stop some Chinese journalists from working there. They said these journalists were doing things they shouldn’t be doing. ๐
This made China’s Taiwan Affairs Office very unhappy. A spokesperson named Chen Binhua said that Taiwan’s leaders, especially Lai Ching-te, are making it hard for journalists to do their jobs. He thinks this is bad for communication and peace between Taiwan and China. ๐๏ธ
Chen called this a “step backward” for both sides. He wants Taiwan’s leaders to stop making things difficult for journalists. ๐ข
Why is this important? Well, when journalists can’t share news and stories, people might not understand each other as well. That’s why it’s important for countries to let reporters do their jobs! ๐๏ธ
Let’s hope Taiwan and China can work things out so journalists can keep sharing news between them! ๐ค
