Merkel re: climate change discussion: very unsatisfactory & we have a situation of 6 against 1"

Merkel said the discussion on climate change had been “very unsatisfactory”, adding “we have a situation of six against one”.

Why is there no deal on climate change?

The final communique issued at the G7 summit in Italy said the US "is in the process of reviewing its policies on climate change and on the Paris Agreement and thus is not in a position to join the consensus on these topics".

However, the other G7 leaders pledged to "reaffirm their strong commitment to swiftly implement the Paris Agreement".

German Chancellor Angela Merkel said the discussion on climate change had been "very unsatisfactory", adding "we have a situation of six against one".

Mr Trump tweeted: "I will make my final decision on the Paris Accord next week!

Gotta make the allies wait for the Big Boy, to show them, he's in charge.
How embarrassing. The climate deniers will descend upon him.
