Much of the speech that followed the first diplomatic meeting between China and the United States, since Joe Biden took office, has focused on the tense situation and the position of the countries on many issues.
But on Sunday, a kind of lightning bolt appears in the dark. According to the Chinese state news agency Xinhua, the parties agreed to establish a task force to work together to combat global warming and prevent a full-blown climate crisis.
“The parties are committed to improving communication and cooperation on climate issues.“Writes the news agency according to Reuters.
The information has yet to be officially commented on in the US, writes Reuters.
Profile question for countries
The climate crisis has become a profile issue for President Joe Biden, who overnight reintroduced all references to the climate crisis that can be read again in the country’s environmental protection authority, the EPA. Something that was removed by former President Donald Trump in 2017.
But while China wants to emerge as a global force against climate change, the country’s emissions will increase. This is indicated in China’s upcoming five-year plan, which Expressen previously reported on.
