Renaud Girard: "The climate, the poor relation of geopolitics"

CHRONICLE - For the majority of the planet's political leaders, the climate issue now passes behind the war in Ukraine and behind the Sino-American confrontation for the place of first world power.


Completed very late on Sunday, November 20, 2022, the annual UN climate conference did not yield significant results.

In Sharm el-Sheikh, the States were only able to agree on the creation of a fund to compensate for "losses and damage" caused by global warming in the poorest countries - without going as far as organize the concrete financing of this fund.

Wishing to be positive, the President of the French Republic wrote in a tweet on Sunday evening:

“At COP27, France and Europe reaffirmed their commitment to the climate.”

In rhetoric, we will say that there is a form of preterition here.

Because the main players in global warming, namely China and the United States, are not named by Emmanuel Macron.

He continues his tweet as follows:

We need a new financial pact with the most vulnerable countries.

I will work on it with our partners with a view to a summit in Paris before the next COP.”
