āThe world is capable of acting, also without the USā
It is āremarkableā that the G20 summit in Hamburg did not end up in scandal given that US President Donald Trump came across like a āgrizzly bear among a mountaineering rope teamā, writes Stefan Ulrich in an opinion piece for SĆ¼ddeutsche Zeitung. āAbove all, this summit sends out the message that not even the United States ā still the worldās most powerful country ā succeeded in dissuading the others from climate protection,ā he writes. All other G20 members reaffirmed their commitment to the Paris Climate Agreement, showing that the world was ācapable of acting without, and even against the USAā, writes Ulrich.
