Trump has reportedly decided to withdraw from the Paris climate deal

President Donald Trump has decided to take the US out of the Paris climate accord, Jonathan Swan of the news website Axios first reported Wednesday, citing two sources.

Politico and CNN are also reporting that Trump intends to pull out of the agreement, citing White House officials.

Whether Trump will stay in the deal â a cornerstone of President Barack Obama's environmental legacy â has been a looming question of his nascent presidency.

On his recent trip abroad, Trump was pressured by European allies to stay a part of the accord.

Trump tweeted Wednesday morning that he would announce his decision "over the next few days.".

Trump has previously called climate change a "hoax" and said while campaigning that he would "cancel" the Paris deal if elected.

The official United Nations account tweeted shortly after news broke of Trump's apparent intention to withdraw on Wednesday morning that "Climate change is undeniable" and "Climate action is unstoppable.". »
