UNITED NATIONS — Leaders from around the world maintained a defiant front on Thursday after President Trump announced that he would withdraw the United States from the Paris Agreement (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/31/climate/trump-quits-paris-climate-accord.html).
French President Emmanuel Macron, speaking in English before switching to French, said he believed Mr. Trump was making a mistake. He then extended an offer to Americans:
“Tonight, I wish to tell the United States: France believes in you, the world believes in you. I know that you are a great nation. I know your history, our common history. To all scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, responsible citizens who were disappointed by the decision of the president of the United States, I want to say that they will find in France a second home.”
