Harris pledges to rejoin the Paris Climate agreement and re-enter Iran nuke deal if voted to power

Indian-origin Senator Kamala Harris, Democratic Party's vice-presidential candidate, has pledged to rejoin Paris climate agreement and re-enter Iran nuclear deal to restore "our place in world" and win back "trust and support" of US' Asian and European allies if her party wins vember presidential election.

Harris, 55, is running mate of Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden. At a virtual fundraiser on Friday, she was asked how a Biden-Harris ministration would restore “trust and support of our European and Asian allies.” In response, Harris slammed President Donald Trump and pledged to “rejoin” Paris agreement on Climate Change and “strengn and re-enter” Iran nuclear deal.

“Joe Biden and our ministration is gonna have a massive job to repair dam done by Donald Trump and his ministration, and to restore our place in world,” she said.

In 2017, Trump anunced his decision to withdraw from Paris deal, saying accord would have cost America trillions of dollars, killed jobs, and hindered oil, gas, coal and manufacturing industries. In 2018, Trump pulled out of 2015 Iran nuclear deal.

“Part of our strength when, when we as a country, historically, walk into that room around globe. Part of strength of our standing it's t just about our military it's t just about our ecomic strength. It's about fact that folks believe that when we say something we mean it,” Senator from California said.

“We are loyal to our friends that we keep our word, including when we make commitments, be it to NATO or to Paris agreement that we will follow through. And Donald Trump, he just doesn't get it. I mean it's such an extension of his character as a human being I believe that he doesn't understand importance of integrity and consistency in one's word,” Harris said.

In her remarks, Harris touted Biden’s role in auto industry bailouts. “What gives me great hope is what we have seen again and again that American people, when given opportunity can rise to any challenge,” she said.

“In 2009, when global ecomy was on verge of collapse, President Obama turned to Joe Biden to fortify American auto industry and help people of Michigan to do what you do best, drive our nation's ecomy forward. And I don't need to tell any of leers on this call. We're in a crisis again. And thankfully Joe is back,” she said.

“Joe, of course, championed Obama-Biden rescue of American auto industry, along with people of Michigan, and supported resurgence of great city of Detroit,” she said and alleged that under Trump ministration, American manufacturing is in recession.

“Toger, Joe and I will rebuild middle class and ensure that this time everyone comes along. We will revitalise manufacturing and communities that have experienced mass layoffs and provide small manufacturers with support y need to compete in a global ecomy,” she asserted.
