Donald Trump has been lambasted by a German newspaper with the headline ‘Earth to Trump – f**k you!’ after he pulled out of the Paris climate change accord as world leaders unite to criticise him.

The Berliner Kurier used the expletive headline as German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Friday vowed ‘more decisive action than ever’ to protect the climate after the US pullout.

Despite wide spread condemnation Trump has received some support from Russian President Vladimir Putin who said he will not judge his counterpart’s decision and told an economic forum in St Petersburg ‘don’t worry, be happy.’

‘You shouldn’t make a noise about this, but should create the conditions for joint work,’ Putin said, adding that Trump had said he wanted to renegotiate a new deal.

‘If such a major emitter as the US is not going to cooperate entirely then it won’t be possible to agree any deal in this area,’ Putin said.

The Kremlin leader said that ‘in my view it was possible (for the US) not to leave the Paris agreement because it is a framework deal, and it was possible to change the US obligations inside the framework of these agreements.’

‘But what has been said has been said. And we need to think what to do further,’ he said.

However Chancellor Merkel pledged her country’s continued commitment to the accord, saying it was a ‘cornerstone’ of attempts to protect ‘our Creation’.

‘We in Germany, in Europe and the world will band together to take more decisive action than ever to confront and successfully surmount major challenges to humanity such as climate change,’ she told reporters.
