Hey there! Have you ever had a friend who didn’t keep a promise? That’s kind of what’s happening between China and the United States right now.
China’s Ministry of Commerce says the U.S. has broken agreements they made during important trade talks in Geneva. These talks were about how the two countries buy and sell goods with each other, which is called trade.
The U.S. has made new rules that make it harder for China to get special computer chips and software used in things like smartphones and computers. They also stopped some Chinese students from getting visas to study in the U.S.
China feels these actions are unfair and go against what they agreed on during the talks. They say it’s like the U.S. isn’t playing by the rules they both set.
This disagreement can affect many people because China and the U.S. are big countries that trade a lot. Let’s hope they can sort things out soon! ๐
