Hollande: US must respect ‘irreversible’ climate deal
MARRAKECH, Morocco — French President Francois Hollande on Tuesday urged the United States to respect the “irreversible” Paris Agreement on climate change, and said France will lead a dialogue on the topic with President-elect Donald Trump “on behalf of the 100 countries that have ratified” the deal.
Speaking to a U.N. climate conference in Morocco, Hollande praised President Barack Obama for his role in getting the landmark deal adopted by more than 190 countries in the French capital last year.
