Trump withdraws US from Paris climate agreement impacting UK relations and trade

mirror.co.uk

Donald Trump has signed an executive order to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris climate agreement, a move that could negatively impact the UK’s climate efforts. This decision mirrors his previous withdrawal in 2017. Experts suggest Trump's actions may strain U.S.-UK relations. They warn that a potential free trade deal could raise drug prices in the UK and increase military spending demands on the UK. Additionally, Trump's focus on distancing the U.S. from China may complicate the UK’s economic ties with that country. His tariff policies could lead to a new trade war, affecting business costs for both nations.
