BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 12. As part of
COP29 in Baku, Trend
News Agency proudly presents COP for Hope, a special project
offering an unparalleled platform to hear from world leaders and
trailblazers in politics, economics, science, and ecology, all
united by a shared commitment to addressing today's pressing
climate challenges.
The Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources of Kazakhstan
Yerlan Nyssanbayev became our next interviewee.
The minister told Trend that Azerbaijan has organized COP29 at a high
level, and all necessary infrastructure for fruitful activity has
been created.
“Numerous climate priority problems are being addressed during
COP29 in Baku. The primary concern is well articulated-objectives
and financial amounts. Numerous controversies surround this issue.
Absence of funds results in stagnation. COP29 has initiated
progress in addressing the established objectives, and the
financial benchmarks will be determined. Due to the existence of
several ideas, it is essential to reach a unified, consolidated
conclusion that would enable developing nations to get financing
beyond their financial allocations. Today, we require external
financial support for the implementation of critical climate
initiatives,” the minister said.
To note, the 29th session of the Conference of the Parties to
the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP29) kicked off in
Baku on November 11.
The UN Framework Convention on Climate Change is an agreement
signed at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in June 1992 to
prevent dangerous human interference in the climate system. The
acronym COP (Conference of Parties) stands for“Conference of
Parties” and is the highest legislative body overseeing the
implementation of the Framework Convention on Climate Change. A
total of 198 countries are parties to the Convention. Unless
otherwise decided by the parties, COP is held annually. The first
COP event was held in March 1995 in Berlin, and its secretariat is
located in Bonn.
