Trump to Quit Paris Climate Agreement: U.S.-EU Ties at Greater Risk?
A U.S. withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement could have significant repercussions for U.S.-EU relations.

U.S. President Donald Trump described last week’s European trip as “a great success for America. Hard work but big results!” However, that is not how many others viewed his trip, including German Chancellor Angela Merkel. And on Wednesday, Trump caused further consternation among Western leaders by tweeting that the United States is withdrawing from the Paris climate agreement within the “next few days.” How will the decision impact U.S.-EU relations? CGTN’s Liu Xin is joined by Erik Brattberg, director of the Carnegie Europe Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, from Washington; and in Bonn by Dr. Hans-Dieter Heumann, former president of the Federal Academy for Security Policy in Berlin.

- How Will Trump and Putin’s Diesel Deal Impact Russia and Global Markets?Commentary
Without a ceasefire with Ukraine on attacking each other’s energy infrastructure—to which the Kremlin is unlikely to agree—the diesel agreement between Putin and Trump is largely for show, rather than representing a genuine increase in the volumes of Russian diesel on the global market.

- Russian Indoctrination in Occupied Ukrainian Schools Is a ShamCommentary
Despite a new textbook, an influx of Russian teachers and managers, and an end to the teaching of Ukrainian, the Kremlin is unlikely to have “reprogrammed” locals.
