“We are pleased to be in Azerbaijan for COP29. I want to congratulate Azerbaijan on organizing COP this year, it has been very well managed. This summit comes at an especially critical time. Recently, UN agencies released data showing a rise in global temperatures, with 2024 on track to become the hottest year on record. These findings are deeply concerning in the broader context of global warming, which, as you know, is closely linked to CO2 emissions. As a global community, we must all come together, make every effort to adhere to prior agreements, especially the Paris Agreement of 2015, and address climate change,” said Jakov Milatović, President of Montenegro, AzVision.az reports, citing AZERTAC.
“Climate change is arguably one of the greatest challenges the world faces today, and it is indeed a global issue that can only be resolved through collective action. This is why it is essential to bring world leaders together annually to reaffirm our shared commitments. As we know, the largest countries in the world are also the biggest CO2 emitters, but every nation- including Montenegro and Azerbaijan is demonstrating its commitment. Each year, we gather not only to share what we have achieved individually but also to update and strengthen our collective agenda to address what is likely the world's most pressing problem,” Milatović added.
