Clueless Kerry Doubles Down On His Tone-Deaf Remarks About Ukraine War
John Kerry reiterated his concerns Thursday that the Russian invasion of Ukraine would distract the world from the pressing need to address climate change before it’s too late.
“What’s happened in Ukraine has not helped to concentrate people on reducing [emissions],” Kerry, President Joe Biden’s climate envoy, told The Washington Post. “It’s concentrated people on trying to find substitutes for Russian gas and to meet higher levels of production because of low supply.” [bold, links added]
“But it obviously does interrupt the momentum that we had created coming out of Glasgow,” he added, referencing the United Nations climate summit in Scotland in November.
Kerry previously warned that Russia’s aggression in Ukraine would cause people to lose “focus” on climate change days before Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered troops into the neighboring nation in February.
