(TheLastPatriotNews.com) – One of the most notorious leftist politicians, failed Democrat presidential candidate John Kerry, has done it again, as, in a bewildering new blunder, he has said he would “feel better” about Putin’s Russia, a military aggressor annihilating Ukraine, if Moscow invested in fighting climate change.

Kerry, a former US Secretary of State and US Senator, is leaving the job of President Joe Biden’s Special Presidential Envoy for Climate (SPEC).
He told reporters earlier this week that the global perception of the Russian government could improve if it dedicated as much effort to combating climate change as it has to the conflict with Ukraine.
Kerry shared this striking observation during a press conference in Washington, DC, on the eve of his departure from the SPEC role to participate in Biden’s re-election campaign, Breitbart News reports.
A question posed by a Russian journalist highlighted the tension between the US and Russia, suggesting that this strain might hinder collaborative climate action.
“In this regard, do you think that the Western sanctions are affecting global efforts to fight climate change and the shared commitments under the Paris Agreement?” a Russian journalist asked.
“No, I don’t. Because I believe that Russia has the ability to be able to make enormous changes if it really wants to. I mean, if Russia has the ability to wage a war illegally and invade another country, they ought to be able to find the effort to be responsible on the climate issue,” Kerry responded.
“And unfortunately, because of the actions that Russia took in an unprovoked, illegal war against another nation, we have not been engaged in discussions with Russia, sadly. I say ‘sadly’ because it’s a loss for the world not to be able to have Russia acting constructively on this issue. But we need every country, including Russia – Russia’s one [of] the largest emitters in the world,” he elaborated.
“If Russia wanted to show good faith, they could go out and announce what their reductions are going to be and make a greater effort to reduce emissions now. Maybe that would open up the door for people to feel better about what Russia is choosing to do at this point in time,” Biden’s ally said further.
Kerry’s comments have been interpreted as suggesting that the Russian invasion of Ukraine might be viewed more favorably if Russia were more proactive in reducing emissions.
Biden "climate envoy" John Kerry says Russia must "make a greater effort to reduce emissions."
