Trump's Geopolitical Moves Unsettle China

Trump's Geopolitical Moves Unsettle China

President Trump is making big moves in world politics that are worrying China.

He recently captured Venezuela's leader, Nicolás Maduro, which affects China's oil imports and investments.

China is also concerned about unrest in Iran, another important oil supplier.

China has strong ties with both countries and is trying to figure out how to protect its interests.

China can use its technology and trade relationships to push back, but it's not clear if that will work.

The leaders of China and the US are planning to meet soon to talk about these issues.
