ប្រធានធនាគារពិភពលោកនឹងលាលែងពីដំណែងមុនកាលកំណត់ - ចាកចេញពីលោក Biden ដើម្បីជំនួសតំណែង

Topline

លោក David Malpass ប្រធានធនាគារពិភពលោក បានប្រកាស Wednesday his plan to step down in June, nearly a year before the end of his five-year term, following a recent controversy over climate change comments, and setting up President Biden to name a replacement.

Malpass, who was appointed by former President Donald Trump, said he was leaving the international financial institution “to pursue new challenges.”

As head of the World Bank, Malpass oversaw a sprawling financial institution made up of 189 member countries and focused on international development.

His last day will be June 30, 10 months before the end of his five-year term.

Before his time at the World Bank, Malpass served in Trump’s Treasury Department as the top official for international affairs.

Malpass did not say why he was leaving the bank.

It will be up to the Biden Administration to select the next president of the World Bank.

Malpass made headlines last year after a កាសែត New York Times សំភាសន៍ in which he declined to acknowledge that burning fossil fuels is warming the planet, saying in part, “I’m not a scientist.” In the days after the interview, Malpass បានដើរត្រឡប់មកវិញ those comments. During a CNN interview he said he was not a climate denier. “It’s clear that greenhouse gas emissions are coming from man-made sources, including fossil fuels,” he said. The កាសែត New York Times also reported Malpass sent an internal memo to World Bank employees days after the interview, reiterating the connection and adding that the use of fossil fuels in both advanced and developing countries is “creating another wave of the climate crisis.”
