‘Greta is a sincere girl but..’: Putin takes aim at climate activist

UPDATED ON MAR 03, 2020 03:46 PM IST

About The Video

Russian President Vladimir Putin took a jibe at teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg. Greta took the world by storm with her 'How dare you?' speech at New York's UN Summit. He said, “You know, young people, teenagers, draw attention to today's acute problems, including environmental ones, and it is right, it is very good. They definitely must be supported. But when someone uses children and teenagers for someone's benefit, it is only reprehensible. It is especially bad when someone tries to make money on it. I don't mean to say that this is the case, but we should closely follow further.”

<p>Hours after hundreds of President Donald Trump's supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol in a harrowing assault on American democracy, a shaken Congress on Thursday formally certified Democrat Joe Biden's election victory. Immediately afterward, the White House released a statement from Trump in which he pledged an “orderly transition” when Biden is sworn into office on Jan. 20, although he repeated his false claim that he won the November election. On Wednesday, the Republican president had seemingly encouraged his followers to swarm the Capitol. Congress resumed its work certifying Biden's Electoral College win late in the evening after the chaotic scenes on Capitol Hill. After a debate stretching into the early hours of Thursday, the Senate and the House of Representatives rejected two objections to the tally and certified the final Electoral College vote with Biden receiving 306 votes and Trump 232 votes. Vice President Mike Pence, in declaring the final vote totals, said this “shall be deemed a sufficient declaration of the persons elected president and vice president of the United States.”</p>
