Greece reaffirms commitment to Paris climate accord

Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras reaffirmed Greece’s commitment to the Paris Agreement during Tuesday’s One Planet Summit on climate change in the French capital.

“We are reconfirming our commitment today and we jointly sent a very important message which we hope everyone will heed,” he said.
