Washington: Soon after taking charge as the 47th US president on Monday, Donald Trump signed a first round of executive orders aiming to assert control of the federal workforce, and withdraw from the Paris climate treaty, among others, to halt a slew of orders passed by the previous Joe Biden administration.
Among the executive orders Trump signed with a flourish in front of a cheering crowd was one mandating that federal workers return to their offices five days a week. The move followed the new president’s pledge to end the work-from-home culture that became common during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Trump also signed an executive order directing the US to again withdraw from the landmark Paris climate agreement, dealing a blow to worldwide efforts to combat global warming and once again distancing the US from its closest allies.
Trump also reversed an executive order issued by Biden that moved to lift the US designation of Cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism. Trump also reversed an executive order issued by Biden that moved to lift the US designation of Cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism.
