Now, let me say a few words to our American friends. Climate change is one of the majorof our time. It is already changing our daily lives but it is global. Everyone is impacted. And if we do nothing, our children will know a world of migrations, of wars, of shortage. A dangerous world. It is not the future we want for ourselves. It is not the future we want for our children. It is not the future we want for our world.

    Today, the President of the United States, Donald Trump, announced his decision to  the United States from the Paris Agreement. I do respect his decision, but I do think it is an actual mistake both for the US and for our planet.

    I just said it to President Trump, in a few words a few minutes ago this. Tonight, I wish to tell the United States: France believes in you. The world believes in you. I know that you are a great nation. I know your history, our common history.

To all the scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, and responsible citizens who were disappointed by the decision of the president of the United States, I want to say they will find in France a second homeland. I call on them—come and work here with us, to work together onsolutions for our climate, our environment. I can assure you: France will not give up the fight.

    I reaffirm clearly that Paris agreement will remain irreversible and will be not just by France, but by all the other nations. Over the coming hours, I will have the opportunity to speak with our main partners to define a common strategy and to launch new . I already know that I can count on them.

    I call on you to remain confidence. We will succeed, because we are , because wherever we live, whoever we are, we all share the same responsibility to make our planet great again.
