Some countries still like the USA. But they do not want to follow every USA order. They buy tools and weapons from different places. This helps them stay free.

有些國家仍然喜歡美國，但他們並不希望遵循美國的每一項指令。他們從不同地方購買工具與武器，這有助於他們維持自由。

France started this idea a long time ago. Now, the European Union does it too. India and Indonesia also did this in the past.

法國很久以前就開始了這個想法，現在歐盟也採取同樣做法。印度與印尼在過去也這樣做過。

Today, some countries do not trust the USA to help them. The EU spends more money on its own army. India buys oil from Russia and works with the USA. Canada and Turkey also buy things from different countries.

如今，有些國家不再信任美國會提供幫助。歐盟在自有軍隊上的支出增加。印度購買俄羅斯的石油，同時與美國合作。加拿大與土耳其也向不同國家購買產品。

Conclusion

Now, some countries follow big leaders. Other countries want to decide for themselves.

現在，有些國家追隨強大領導者，而有些國家則希望由自己決定。
