A source on Trump’s transition team told Reuters that the president-elect wants to bypass the stipulation in the agreement that calls for a four-year process for a country to exit the accord.

"It was reckless for the Paris agreement to enter into force before the election," the source said.

The unnamed Trump official blamed the Obama administration for not consulting the Senate before agreeing to the deal.

"There wouldn't be this diplomatic fallout on the broader international agenda if Obama hadn't rushed the adoption," the source told Reuters.
