Answer

Looks like you are using Python 2.7.

Please take a look at this - https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/developer/announcing-end-of-support-for-python-2-7-in-aws-sdk-for-python-and-aws-cli-v1/#:~:text=Pip%20Installation%20%E2%80%93%20If%20you're,for%20getting%20your%20environment%20setup.

It mentions the following - "If you’re currently using Python 2.7 as your runtime for AWS CLI v1, we recommend downloading Python 3.6 or later. You can follow our CLI upgrade guide for getting your environment setup."
