The Foreign Ministry said on Friday that China will enhance cooperation with all parties involved in the Paris Agreement after US President Donald Trump decided to withdraw from the agreement.

"The Paris Agreement contains the international community's broadest consensus on climate change," spokesperson Hua Chunying said. "It was a hard-won result."

Hua said the Chinese government will implement a plan of innovation, coordination, green development, opening up and sharing regarding climate change.

She added that it was China's responsibility as a major developing country to curb climate change, something that was also key to the country's sustainable development.

In future China will continue efforts to deal with climate change and actively participate in the multilateral process, said Hua.
