Vladimir Putin's "Don't Worry Be Happy" Comment
At the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF), Vladimir Putin dismissed the global panic over Donald Trump leaving the climate accord. In a rare English-speaking moment, Putin told the audience "Don't worry, be happy," referencing the Bobby McFerrin song. The comment is viewed as a humorous dismissal of Western environmental anxieties.
