President of the European Council Donald Tusk on Friday disagreed with the position of French President Emmanuel Macron, who has threatened to withhold his signature from the G20 leaders' final declaration if it does not cover the issue of climate change, APA reports citing Sputnik.
Asked how he could comment on Macron's claims, Tusk told reporters that G20 leaders should help Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, whose country holds the presidency of the summit, with a final declaration instead of threatening to boycott it.
Earlier in the week, Macron said that the climate change was a "red line" issue for the G20 summit and warned that France would not sign a final declaration if it did not include the leaders' strong support for climate protection measures.
