Alberto Fernández to ratify geopolitical decision to deal with climate change at summit called by Biden

Alberto Fernández has already reviewed the speech he will deliver today at the Leaders’ Climate Change Summit hosted by Joseph Biden to prevent unchecked economic development from affecting daily life and the environment. The President will ratify his decision to reduce carbon emissions, bet on renewable energies and support all measures proposed at the global level to comply with the recommendations established in the Paris Agreement.

Alberto Fernández will have his four-minute speech space at noon in Argentina, And last night, he asked his trusted advisers how he would list in this short time all the proposals he intends to ratify in front of 40 world leaders summoned by the President of the United States.

“It is a very long list of commitments in favor of the environment that we will assume globally”the head of state said yesterday to Olivos. Francisco, Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin have already secured their participation in the summit called by Biden.

Minister Juan Cabandié, Secretary Gustavo Beliz, Minister of Foreign Affairs Felipe Solá and Argentine Ambassador to Washington, Jorge Arguello, They were key elements in responding to the invitation to the summit made by Biden and writing the close speech that Alberto Fernández will read to the political leaders of the most important countries of the world.

The head of state has always considered climate change as a strategic line of his geopolitical agenda and has discussed the issue at length with Francisco, Emmanuel Macron, Pedro Sánchez and Ángela Merkel. Without a doubt, Alberto Fernández’s defense of the Treaty of Paris enabled a rapid connection with the most powerful leaders of the European Union (EU).

And unlike sensu, this environmental perspective has complicated his bilateral relationship with Jair Bolsonaro and Donald Trump. Biden’s arrival at the White House enabled bilateral relationship with the United States and his invitation to this climate change summit is a diplomatic demonstration of the harmony that can exist between the Democratic administration and the Frente de Todos government.

The climate change summit is the first geopolitical event Biden calls for to reclaim a multilateral agenda that the United States lost by decision of Donald Trump. The President of the United States has already secured some membership from the European Union and China and hopes Latin America will catch up with the leaders of Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) and Alberto Fernández.

In this context, Cabandié, Beliz, Sola and Arguello have done a meticulous job of finding solid matches with John Kerry, special envoy for climate change in the Democratic administration. Alberto Fernández’s speech goes in this direction, unlike Jair Bolsonaro who considers the Treaty of Paris as a multilateral anecdote told by Biden, Macron and Angela Merkel.

US President to Propose New Emissions Control Target, Call for Coal Use Reduction, will announce a sharp increase in climate finance for developing countries and will offer States to design their post-COVID-19 economic recovery plans in an environmentally friendly manner.

Alberto Fernández will endorse this multilateral agenda in his speech to the 40 world leaders. President aims to demonstrate that he is not closed to the US world leaf and that his diplomatic relations with Russia and China do not involve an automatic alignment that distances him from the White House.

A political decision that Washington already appreciates while Argentina is still negotiating its extended facilities agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the final decision is made by President Biden and his allies in the European Union, Latin America and the Far East.
