A: Hey Hana-chan! Did you hear about what Macron, the French president, said?

B: No, Ken-san! What’s up?

A: Well, he thinks America is changing its role a bit. He says the US is powerful, but not as reliable to its friends anymore.

B: Really? Like, what does he mean?

A: Apparently, things like grabbing Maduro, the Venezuelan president, and wanting to buy Greenland! Crazy, right?

B: Wow! Greenland? Who wants Greenland?! And that's America First policy, huh?

A: Exactly! He also mentioned America doesn't follow the rules it used to push. He thinks big countries are wanting to split up the world, kind of.

B: That’s a bit scary! What else did he say?

A: He's also worried about China. He says China is getting stronger and more aggressive with business.

B: Oh yeah, I've heard that too. It's affecting Europe, right?

A: Yep! He thinks China’s really impacting Europe’s economy now. Big changes happening!

B: So, a lot going on in the world… Thanks for telling me, Ken-san!
