Learning a foreign language offers an insight into how people from other cultures think and see the world. The teaching of a foreign language should be compulsory at all primary schools. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this view?
The vogue of learning foreign languages is taking place popularly all over the world. While I believe that this offers a golden opportunity for learners to gain understanding about the ways of thinking of the others, I also think that we should not make teaching of foreign languages compelled at all primary schools.
On the one hand, there are two main justifications for why learning a new language is useful for development of people's knowledge about the world. Firstly, there is strong correlation between a specific language and a specific culture of a nation; therefore, mastering a new language will provide an overwhelming advantage to gain an insight about inhabitants in that country. Secondly, a specific language relates to a specific history of a nation, so successes in learning a new language are likely to offer ample opportunities in grasping that country's history, in which your horizons about other countries will be broadened.
However, I hold a belief that teaching of foreign languages should not be required at all primary schools. The advocates of this tendency may agree that it would be better to compel children to learn foreign languages since the sooner they learn, the sooner they will master it. This seems to be convincing at first, but it is not supported by the fact that, in rural areas and ethnic monority areas, there are not enough necessary conditions both in resources and materials for teaching foreign languages. Not to mention that, teaching them in maths and literature is more pressing. In Viet Nam, children in H'Mong Ethnic minority need to be taught literature more than any foreign languages because most of them are illiterate.
By the way of conclusion, it is certainly true that knowing a new foreign language will open a bridge helping us to attain more knowledge about different countries. Nonetheless, this is no means that the education of foreign languages have to be commanded in all primary schools.

It is true that compulsory teaching of second language possibly helps children to gain better understanding of this matter, however I disagree if this subject is mandated as a must in every elementary school.
