His
climate envoy said something about the
climate. But what's the Full quote?
Kerry, the special presidential envoy for climate, appeared on camera Thursday to speak with BBC Arabic, where he decried the "massive emissions consequences to the war," adding, "But equally importantly, you're going to lose people's focus. You're going to lose certainly big country attention because they will be diverted. I think it could have a damaging impact. . . I hope President Putin will help us to stay on track with respect of what we need to do for the climate.
"I think, hopefully, that President Putin would realize that in the northern part of his country, they used to live on 66% of a nation that was over frozen land," Kerry said. "Now it's thawing. His infrastructure is at risk. The people of Russia are at risk." . . . "In terms of international law and trying to change boundaries of international law by force, I thought we lived in a world that had said, 'No,' to that kind of activity," Kerry went on. "I hope diplomacy will win." . . ."I'm very concerned," Kerry said. "I'm concerned about Ukraine because of the people of Ukraine and because of the principles that are at risk."
Former Secretary of State John Kerry appeared for an interview to express his regret that the war between Ukraine and Russia is distracting people from climate change.
