Hey there! 😊 Did you know that China and the United States are two of the biggest countries in the world? Sometimes, even big countries have disagreements, just like friends might have arguments.
Recently, China asked the U.S. to change some things in a big law called the National Defense Authorization Act (or NDAA for short). This law talks about how the U.S. plans to spend money on defense next year. China feels that some parts of this law are not very friendly towards them.
Mr. Xu Dong, who speaks for China’s government, said that China wants the U.S. to stop thinking of them as enemies. He hopes they can both work together and respect each other. After all, when big countries get along, it helps the whole world! 🌍
China believes that both countries can win if they cooperate. That means they can share ideas, trade goods, and help make the world a better place. Mr. Xu also said that it’s okay to have differences, but they should not lead to fights or problems.
He mentioned some things that are very important to China, like their way of doing things and places like Taiwan. China wants the U.S. to understand and respect these important topics.
In the end, China hopes the U.S. will change the parts of the law that they don’t like, so they can both move forward as friends. Let’s hope they can work it out! 🤝
