President Donald Trump has announced that the US is withdrawing from the 2015 Paris climate agreement. He said moves to negotiate a new "fair" deal that would not disadvantage US businesses and workers would begin. Mr Trump said during last year's presidential election campaign that he would take the step to help his country's oil and coal industries.

Opponents say withdrawing from the accord is an abdication of US leadership on a key global challenge.

Speaking in the White House Rose Garden, Mr Trump characterized the Paris agreement as a deal that aimed to hobble, disadvantage and impoverish the US. He claimed the agreement would cost the US $3tn in lost GDP and 6.5 million jobs - while rival economies like China and India were treated more favorably.

"In order to fulfill my solemn duty to protect America and its citizens, the United States will withdraw from the Paris climate accord... but begin negotiations to re-enter either the Paris accord or a really entirely new transaction on terms that are fair to the United States," he said. "We don't want other leaders and other countries laughing at us any more - and they won't be," he said.

特朗普总统宣布美国要退出2015年达成的巴黎气候协定。他表示，下一步会展开谈判，以达成一个全新的、不会让美国企业和工人陷入不利境地的“公平的”协议。在去年的总统竞选中，特朗普就曾经表示，他要采取措施帮助美国的石油和煤炭行业。

反对派表示，退出巴黎协定是主动放弃了美国在重要全球挑战领域的领导地位。

在白宫玫瑰园的讲话中，特朗普将巴黎协定描述为一个旨在阻碍美国、让美国处于不利境地并陷入贫困的协议。他声称，该协定会让美国损失3万亿美元的GDP和650万个工作岗位，而中国和印度等国家却能享受到更多优惠待遇。

他说：“为了履行我保护美国和美国民众的神圣职责，美国将从巴黎气候协定中撤出......不过，我们将展开谈判，以重新加入巴黎协定或者一个全新的、对美国公平的协议。”“我不想让其他国家和他们的领导人继续嘲笑我们，他们也不会再嘲笑了。”
