“There is no respect for the American way of life,” Trump said.
Washington:
US President Donald Trump alleged India, China and Russia are not taking care of their air, while America is, noting that he has withdrawn from the Paris climate agreement “unilateral and destructive of energy” which would have made it a “competitive non-national”.
Trump, in his Energy and Permian Basin address in Midland, Texas on Wednesday, said that by imposing these punitive restrictions – and beyond the restrictions – “the mad Democrats on the radical left in Washington” would send also countless American jobs, factories, industries in China and other polluting foreign states
“They want us to take care of our air, but China doesn’t take care of its air. In all fairness, India doesn’t take care of its air. Russia doesn’t take care of its air. But we do. Not under my supervision, it will not happen – I can tell you. Because as long as I’m president, we’ll always put America first. It’s very simple, ”he said.
“For years and years we put other countries first, and now we put America first. As we have seen in cities and towns across our country, it’s not just oil. Texas that radical Democrats want to destroy; they want to destroy our country, “he said.
Such radical democrats, he asserted, do not love the country in any way, in any form or in any form.
“There is no respect for the American way of life. There has never been a way of life in history that has been like the great American way of life. There is no respect, but there are some through you, and there are some through 95% of our people. Our people love our country, and our people love our anthem and they love our flag, ”he declared.
Trump has said that under the last administration the US energy industry was the target of relentless and relentless attacks.
“But the day I was sworn in, we ended the war on American energy and we stopped the far-left assault on American energy workers,” he said. .
Observing that he withdrew from the energy-destroying unilateral Paris climate deal, he said it was a disaster and cost the United States billions of dollars.
In November last year, the United States formally notified the UN of its withdrawal from the Paris climate agreement, a global agreement in which President Trump’s predecessor, Barack Obama, had played a key role. .
Although Trump announced his decision to withdraw from the historic pact on June 1, 2017, the process began last year with the official notification and the United States will be out of the pact on November 4, 2020.
“That (the Paris climate agreement) would have made us an uncompetitive nation. We canceled the Obama administration’s clean energy plan, crushing jobs,” he said in listing some of the actions taken by his administration.
“For the first time in almost 70 years, we have become a net exporter of energy. And the United States is now the largest producer of oil and natural gas on the face of the earth. To ensure that we maintain this dominant position long into the future, my administration announces today that export approvals for US liquefied natural gas can now be extended until 2050, ”added Trump.
India is the world‘s fourth-largest emitter of carbon dioxide, accounting for 7% of global emissions in 2017, according to the Global Carbon Project projection released in December 2018.
The top four emitters in 2017, which covered 58% of global emissions, were China (27%), the United States (15%), the European Union (10%) and India (7%), a he indicated. .
