Why is the U.S. Worried About China’s Growing Role in the World? 🌏
Hi there! Have you ever played a game where one of your friends started getting really good, and everyone started to notice them more? That’s kind of what’s happening between two big countries: the United States (U.S.) and China.
China has been helping countries around the world by building roads, bridges, and other important things. This helps those countries grow and become stronger. They call this big project the “Belt and Road Initiative”. It’s like helping your neighbors fix their houses so the whole neighborhood looks nicer!
The U.S. has noticed that China is making lots of new friends by helping them out. Some people in the U.S. government, like Marco Rubio (a U.S. official), are saying that they are worried about this. They think that China might be getting too powerful and are concerned about how this will affect the U.S.
But many countries are happy because China is helping them build important things they need, like schools and hospitals. They also get to decide what’s best for them, without being told what to do.
It’s like in school: if someone new starts sharing their toys and helping others, some kids might feel left out or worried. But in the end, making new friends and helping each other can make everyone happier!
What do you think? Is it good to help others and make new friends? 🤗
