“Within the COP29 Presidency Team, we have 14 initiatives. ‘COP Truce Initiative’ is one of them,” said Mukhtar Babayev, COP29 President-Designate during an interview with APA.
Mukhtar Babayev believes that many different countries and organizations, especially representatives from civil society, have shown great interest in this initiative: “In fact, hundreds of organizations and parties have already joined. This demonstrates the importance and relevance of the initiative, particularly in the current global context.”
COP29 President-Designate noted with regret that there are 52 conflicts around the world today: “52 conflicts around the world - 52. Just imagine! This means not only human suffering but also a massive environmental impact. Think about how many tones of emissions are released into the atmosphere due to war and military actions. All these activities have a devastating effect on the climate and nature. That’s why this initiative is crucial.
We believe it has great potential, and we will continue working with countries and organizations to bring as many partners on board as possible to support this process.”
