Trump Threat To Renegotiate UN Climate Deal Causes Dismay Abroad

U.S. insistence on renegotiation could unravel a 195-nation compromise to curb greenhouse gas emissions reached in Paris in December after fraught talks between nations as different as China, the United States, small island states and OPEC members.
