Solomon Islands Blocks US, China, Taiwan from Pacific Forum

The Solomon Islands, which is hosting a big meeting for countries in the Pacific, decided not to invite some important countries like the U.S. and China.

This decision seems to be because China wants Taiwan, a country that has good relationships with some Pacific islands, to be left out.

Some people think this is a bad idea because it means these island nations won't get to meet with countries that give them help.

Another island's leader said that China has been trying to change what the countries say about Taiwan.

The Pacific islands are also worried about rising sea levels and get help from many other countries.
