• Origin: Trump says NATO has been taking advantage of the US all this time because they invest less in defense.

• Current situation:

- Trump says Europe is too dependent on the United States and that NATO only makes sense if Europeans pay more and are more obedient.

- But now, with the Strait of Hormuz, he is asking for military aid because he doesn't want to bear the cost and risk alone, but Europe refuses because it sees it as not their problem.

• Why do we care?: In my opinion, Trump is trying to take advantage of Europe's resources under the pretext that the US has contributed more to NATO, because he doesn't want to take full responsibility for what he's doing. He's making us spend more on defense, and that could affect us economically.It also increases tensions between the two parties.

#TrumpGreenland

1. The main countries: China and USA.

2. The origin: Possibly the cold war, because USA is capitalist and China is communist.

3. The current situation: The trade and economic war between China and the United States, which began in 2018, started from the USA's efforts to reduce its enormous trade deficit, fight Beijing's unfair trade practices and intellectual property theft, and slow down China's technological advancement in strategic sectors such as AI and semiconductors.

In other words, the USA is crying about the technological advancement of China and wants to stop them.

4. "Why do we care?"

The gold question, this generates tension, not only in China, nor the little IPad and hyperactive kid (USA), but also in all the world. The tariffs are the main """punishment""" that the USA is giving to China, and vice versa, but this tariffs affects other countries. The high tariffs make prices of Chinese products rise, a problem to many countries that buy dialy from TEMU or Shein, as an example.

-The origin of the conflict started with Hugo Chavez's leadership from 1999 to 2013. USA was accused of interfiering in Venezuela's internal affairs.

After Chavez past away, Maduro gained the political power and for the past almost thirdteen years, the Venezuelans lived horribly, mass emigration due to the poverty and low life quality, minimun wages, the collapse of oil production and the abuse of human rights.

On January 3rd, Maduro and his wife were captured at night. Later, they were both accused of drug trafficking.
