克魯茲批拜登重回巴黎協定 環保少女發文嘲諷
〔即時新聞/綜合報導〕美總統拜登上任首日隨即簽署15項行政命令,當中包括重返《巴黎氣候協定》。此舉遭共和黨參議員克魯茲批評「重視巴黎勝過匹茲堡」,瑞典少女環保少女童貝里(Greta Thunberg)則在社群媒體上嘲諷「歡迎美國重返匹茲堡協定」。
克魯茲21日在官方推特上寫道,「重返巴黎氣候協定,顯示出總統拜登重視巴黎人的看法,勝過匹茲堡人的工作機會,這項協定對改善氣候問題只是杯水車薪,卻會損害美國人的生計。」
對此,童貝里雖沒有點名任何人,但她在推特上發文說:「真高興美國重返匹茲堡協定,歡迎回來!」
克魯茲隔日在個人推特上發起活動,「你挺哪邊?巴黎還是匹茲堡?如果你支持藍領勞工聯盟,如果你捍衛工作機會,來這裡免費領取「匹茲堡>巴黎」的保險槓貼紙。」
Greta Thunberg took to social media Thursday to praise President Biden's decision to rejoin the Paris climate accord while mocking Sen. Ted Cruz's (R-Texas) condemnation of the move.
"So happy that USA has finally rejoined the Pittsburgh Agreement. Welcome back!" the teenage climate activist tweeted, renaming the accord to take an implicit jab at Cruz's statement.
Cruz had brought up Pittsburgh on Wednesday night while tweeting his dismay over the United States's reentry into the Paris agreement, shortly after Biden signed the executive order.
"By rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement, President Biden indicates he’s more interested in the views of the citizens of Paris than in the jobs of the citizens of Pittsburgh," Cruz wrote. "This agreement will do little to affect the climate and will harm the livelihoods of Americans."
Later Wednesday night, Cruz engaged in war of words on Twitter over the move with comedian Seth Rogen, who called the Texas Republican a "fascist."
"Go encourage a white supremacist insurrection again you f---ing clown," Rogen tweeted at Cruz.
Cruz fired back at Rogan, condemning the "22 Jump Street" star's "charming, civil, educated response."
"If you’re a rich, angry Hollywood celebrity, today’s Dems are the party for you," Cruz added. "If you’re blue-collar, if you’re a union member, if you work in energy or manufacturing...not so much."
