Former US VP Al Gore says 'reaction to Trump's assault on democracy is very strong'
Al Gore, the 45th Vice President of the United States (1993–2001), granted a rare interview to FRANCE 24 in Paris. The renowned environmentalist took stock of the green transition, with Donald Trump's return to the White House expected to usher in a comeback of fossil fuels in the US. But for Gore, "the renewable energy revolution is unstoppable". He also said that Trump "actively deceived the American people" during his election campaign by denying all knowledge of the conservative blueprint Project 2025, adding that "the reaction to Trump's assault on democracy is very, very strong".
