North Korea has criticized the United States over President Donald Trump’s decision to quit the Paris Climate Agreement as “short-sighted and silly,” saying it was another example of U.S. “recklessness.”

Trump announced his plan to remove the U.S. from the landmark deal on climate change on Thursday and declared an “end to the war on coal” which has also resulted in cuts at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

North Korea, however, has signed the Paris Agreement, and declared its own “war on deforestation” in 2015. According to state media Pyongyang is committed to renewable resources. with foreign minister Ri Su Yong saying in 2015 it aimed to reduce emissions by 37 percent.
