The agreement came with a 3 year commitment before being able to formally withdraw. Sure Trump can say fuck it and just not act in accordance with the agreement. Do you really think that is a good way to lead? It would completely discredit our word and any agreements we have or make with foreign allies. What good is making a deal with the US if we can't keep our promises through new administrations?
I'm curious. I'm always eager to learn.
What is the significance of NOT being able to withdraw from an agreement, which is not a treaty, is not enforceable and costs us nothing to withdraw today but it won't be "formal" for three years?
So what? What is your point?
If you read the agreement you'd know too that it was TERRIBLE for the U.S., would cost us many billions of dollars and cost us millions of jobs.
YES, bailing out of such a SNAFU is showing brave, committed LEADERSHIP.
The snowflakes won the battle of futile gestures.
