《维也纳条约法公约》中有关缔约国退出业已签订的国际条约的规定适用于不同内容的国际条约,因而国际环境条约也不例外。鉴于《巴黎协定》第二十八条明确规定了退出条款,作为缔约国的美国可以自由选择退出《巴黎协定》。虽然美国退出《巴黎协定》的做法并不违反其中的规定,但这种退出的做法仍然会对国际环境法的发展、《联合国气候变化框架公约》的贯彻落实乃至全球共同应对气候变化的努力产生不利影响,这是美国政府不履行其对国际社会所负义务的体现。
The provisions of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties concerning the withdrawal of a contracting State from an already signed international treaty apply to different international treaties, so international environmental treaties are no exception. In view of the fact that Article 28 of the Paris Agreement clearly stipulates the terms of the withdrawal, the United States, as a contracting State, is free to opt out of the Paris Agreement. Although the withdrawal of the United States from the “Paris Agreement” does not violate its provisions, this withdrawal will still result in the development of international environmental law, the implementation of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change and even the global efforts to cope with climate change This is a manifestation of the U.S. government’s failure to fulfill its obligations to the international community.
