Discussions at COP26 in Glasgow, Scotland (UK) are expected to continue this weekend. For Clément Sénéchal, spokesperson for Greenpeace, the continuation of these discussions is not necessarily a good thing. He is the guest of the 11pm newscast.

While they were to end in the coming hours, the discussions between the countries present at the COP26 in Glasgow (Scotland, United Kingdom), should continue over the weekend. “This is not necessarily good news. For me, it clearly means that there are blockages in the negotiations. For now, what is in the draft final decisions is very insufficient and I would say even that it is revolting. The rich countries refuse to honor the promises concerning the poor countries, they refuse to fill the deficits, they do not want to join in the international solidarity “, testifies Clément Sénéchal, Greenpeace spokesperson.

Six years after the Paris Agreements, the States present at COP26 made it clear that the limitation of the increase in temperatures announced in the French capital would be difficult to sustain. “We must always be wary of announcements from the government of Emmanuel Macron. Often, announcements on the climate remain without a future”, adds Clément Sénéchal, spokesperson for Greenpeace.
