Paris climate deal: UN chief expresses disappointment at Trump’s decision, world leaders term it ‘historic error’

United States President Donald Trump’s decision to pull out of 2015 Paris agreement on Climate Change has left the world in anger and dismay. The leaders from across the globe have termed the decision ‘disappointing’, ‘seriously wrong’, ‘disheartening’ and a ‘historic error’.

Even as Trump called the agreement heavily biased in favour of China and India, the world leaders pledged to defend the agreement and not to backtrack in the fight against climate change.

My job as President is to do everything within my power to give America a level playing field. #AmericaFirst🇺🇸
