If this go ahead , Syria – a land catch in civil warfare – will be the only country in the world to have not signed the climate spate .
Meanwhile , Trump announcedplans to withdrawearlier this year , accusing other commonwealth of using the dealto pull ahead fiscal advantageover the US . He ’s called it a"bad deal"but has n’t rule out creating a"better deal " . ( And by better , we signify well for Americans . The rest of the world be curse . )
