John Kerry: US will not accept a bill for ‘loss and damage’ – The National
US climate envoy John Kerry said the US would not accept an “imposed standard of liability” to help vulnerable countries overcome the effects of climate change.
In an interview with The National, the former secretary of state said the US could be relied upon for climate-related disaster relief — but “that's different from paying for a loss that hasn't been purely defined”.
“The United States will not accept … some imposed standard of liability,” said Mr Kerry, who was in Abu Dhabi for an Atlantic Council event.
