Reigning United States President Donald Trump who will be facing the presidential elections on November 3, has blamed India, China, and Russia for not adopting effective steps to combat the negative effects of climate change. On October 22, Trump also justified America’s decision to withdraw from the Paris climate agreement.
“Look at China, how filthy it is. Look at Russia. Look at India. The air is filthy. I walked out of the Paris Accord as we had to take out trillions of dollars and we were treated very unfairly,” said Trump during his final presidential debate in Tennessee.
This is not the first time that Trump has blamed countries like China and India for not doing anything to control the adverse effects of climate change. Earlier, the US president had claimed that India and China are regions in the world where it is impossible to breathe.
““We have the best environmental numbers, ozone numbers, and so many other numbers. In the meantime, China, Russia, India all these countries they’re spewing stuff into the air,” added Trump during the rally.
In the final presidential debate, Trump’s opponent Joe Biden lashed out at the US president for befriending with North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong-un. Biden started attacking Trump when the president claimed that he has avoided war through his summits with Kim Jong-un.
Calling Kim Jong-un a thug, Biden revealed that Trump’s move was very similar to becoming a friend of Adolf Hitler before the second world war.
