The U.S. joined the war after the attack on Pearl Harbor because the American Public was upset that Americans were killed. America was reluctant to join WW2 because as a nation they were just beginning to recover from the Great Depression and had just recently lost troops in WW1.

神舟十二號飛船周四（17日）上午順利發射，載着3名航天員進入預定軌道，準備前往中國空間站（太空站）天和核心艙，讓航天員首次進駐並啟用中國天宮太空站。中國航天發展雖然受到美國杯葛，但這未有阻止其他國家與中國航天合作，歐洲航天員也在學習中文，準備參與中國太空站項目。
中國太空站計劃已籌備多年，尤其國際太空站使用年限快盡，中國太空站數年後或成唯一太空站，更加受到各國關注。
中國太空站的國際合作早在數年前已經展開。2018年，歐洲航天局時任局長韋爾納（Johann-Dietrich Wörner）表示，多名歐洲航天員正在學習中文，準備今後參與中國太空計劃。

《上海證券報》1月13日報道，近日，中國各地開始了一波地方經濟數據的大盤點。目前，合肥、南通、泉州、福州、西安等城市發佈消息稱，2020年GDP突破萬億元，正式躋身萬億元城市俱樂部。 如果加上此前已經跨入萬億元俱樂部的17個城市，中國內地萬億元GDP城市的數量將首次達到22個。
https://www.hk01.com/ 財經快訊/573708/
濟南和東莞還沒有透露任何消息。業內人士預計，這些城市最早2020年、最遲2021年會成功衝關萬億元。如果不出意外，到2021年，中國內地萬億元城市俱樂部將會擴容到24個。
