China has taken President Biden’s comments in Glasgow climate summit as a chance to mock the president as “powerless,” despite the absence of President Xi Jinping from the conference.
Biden spoke at the opening of the COP26 U.N. climate summit on Monday, stressing the need for “action and solidarity” while also using the moment to “apologize” for the fact “the U.S., under the last administration,” pulled out of the Paris accord.
“I guess I shouldn’t apologize, but I do apologize for the fact that the United States under the last administration pulled out of the Paris agreement. That kind of put us behind the eight ball a bit,” Biden said.
