BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 21. As the
international community, we must do everything possible to finally
stay on the 1.5-degree path outlined in Paris, said Annalena
Baerbock, Germany's Minister for Foreign Affairs, at a press
conference at COP29, Trend reports.
"The climate crisis is the largest security challenge of our
time, and it transcends national borders, affecting even the most
powerful military nations. It is indifferent to geopolitical
tensions and even to election dates," she said.
Unlike geopolitical conflicts, where the responsibility for
establishing peace lies with governments and societies, Baerbock
argued, resolving the climate crisis is no longer solely in our
hands.
“If we cooperate closely as an international community, we can
at best contain the climate crisis. That's why we come to climate
conferences every year – because every tenth of a degree matters.
As the international community, we must do everything we can to
finally get on the path of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees,
as set out in Paris,” she added.
