Reflections on current US Climate Policy: Implications to the international climate regime and the MENA region


This Insight examines current US climate policy and the potential implications for the international climate regime and the MENA region. It delves into the consequences of recent decisions such as the US withdrawal from the Paris Agreement and the climate research funding cuts. These decisions raise doubts about the ability of implementing critical climate actions and policies such as the New Collective Quantified Goal (NCQG) on climate finance and the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). The Insight recommends UNFCCC and Paris Agreement parties to remain actively engaged in the climate negotiations, to consider increasing their climate finance contributions where possible and to demonstrate leadership with the implementation of their NDCs.
