Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has intensified his criticism of the United States, directly accusing President Donald Trump of encouraging the wave of protests that has shaken the country.

$300 Billion Annual Climate Deal Sparks Division Between Critics and Supporters

 

A newly proposed $300 billion annual global climate funding agreement has sparked a polarized reaction worldwide. The deal, designed to accelerate efforts to combat climate change, aims to support renewable energy projects, sustainable development, and climate adaptation initiatives, particularly in vulnerable regions.

The controversy underscores the ongoing tension between the urgent need for climate action and debates over equitable financial responsibility. As negotiations continue, the success of the deal will depend on its implementation and ability to balance global cooperation with national interests.
