House would urge UN to change China's 'Developing Nation' label

A House resolution would formally state that China should no longer be called a "Developing Nation" by the United Nations. This is because China has become the world's second-largest economy and a major global investor. The resolution aims to influence how international groups classify China.

What Would Change

Currently, the United Nations and other international groups classify China as a "Developing Nation." If this resolution passes, the U.S. House of Representatives would formally state its opinion that China's economic growth means it should no longer hold this label.
