Hey there! Did you know that when countries trade goods and services, it helps everyone grow and prosper? 🌐 But sometimes, disagreements can make trade tricky. That’s why delegates from over 30 developing countries met in Geneva to figure out how to work together and overcome these challenges! 🤝
The meeting was co-hosted by China’s representatives to the United Nations in Geneva and the South Center, an organization where developing countries join forces to promote their interests. They talked about the rising tensions in global trade and how it affects developing countries. 📈
Chen Xu, China’s permanent representative to the UN in Geneva, said that some countries’ actions, like imposing tariffs (extra taxes on goods from other countries), make it harder for developing countries to grow and trade. 😟
But here’s the good news: everyone at the meeting agreed to strengthen their cooperation! 🥳 They want to work together to support each other, promote development, and achieve the United Nations’ goals for a better world by 2030. 🎯
By teaming up, these countries hope to make global trade fairer and more beneficial for everyone. Isn’t it great when people come together to solve problems? 😊
