<p>I welcomed the US Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, John Kerry, to London
on Monday 8 March 2021, his first international visit since his appointment. We discussed
the new US Administration’s climate ambition and our joint efforts to ensure that
COP26 is a success. Our discussion built on previous conversations I have had with
Secretary Kerry and with Gina McCarthy, US National Climate Advisor.</p><p>I refer

Kerry published on GOV.UK on Tuesday 9 March 2021. The UK and US will be working closely
together to ensure that President Biden’s Leaders’ Summit on Climate on 22 April and
