Azerbaijan invited Armenia to UN climate change conference in November
Azerbaijan on Wednesday invited Armenia to the 29th UN climate change conference (COP29) to be held in Baku in November.
“We have the infrastructure to host approximately 40,000 guests in one day. Invitations were sent to all the heads of state in the world. More than 50 heads of state and government confirmed that they will attend. We expect this number to increase. Armenia was also invited,” Azerbaijan’s Deputy Energy Minister Elnur Soltanov said.
Saying that COP29 will be an event “incomparable” to any international event Azerbaijan has hosted to date, Soltanov, also the CEO of COP29, added that Baku will lead climate negotiations and present the country’s activities in this regard.
“The relationship between climate and peace is also among Azerbaijan’s proposals. We will call for a cease-fire all over the world at COP29, as we did at the Olympics,” he said.
