Biden: Summit Offers 'Democratic Alternative' To Chinese Influence.

As the leaders of the world’s wealthiest nations wrapped up their first in-person summit since the outbreak of the pandemic, the leaders of seven industrialized nations released a joint communiqué on Sunday, underscoring areas of solidarity — and the differences that remain — when it comes to tackling a host of global crises.

The group, including President Biden, did not reach agreement on a timeline to eliminate the use of coal for generating electric power, a failure that climate activists said was a deep disappointment ahead of a global climate conference later this year.

The leaders sought to present a united front even as it remained to be seen how the plans would be executed.

The agreement marked a dramatic return of America’s postwar international diplomacy, and President Biden said it was evidence of the strength of the world’s democracies in tackling hard problems.

Ya know what?
We heard nary a murmur, nor a Thanks Mr President , when Keystone Pipeline closed up shop just a week ago.

Here I'll say it for them. Thank You President Biden!! You came thru with your promise & sealed that long fought environmental nightmare.

Guess the activists must have missed President Biden's environmental milestone.
