China’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Zhang Jun, said that his country fully supports the United Arab Emirates in hosting the COP28 Conference.
Ambassador Zhang Jun, during an open session of the UN Security Council, said: “China supports the United Nations in playing an important role in addressing climate change, and fully supports the United Arab Emirates in hosting COP28. We believe that the conference, led by President-designate Dr. Sultan Al-Jaber, will achieve important and positive results.” “.
He added, “Inadequate financing is the main obstacle in global climate management. UN agencies must establish a monitoring mechanism for the implementation of climate financing, and encourage developed countries to translate commitments into action. The Security Council must play its role vigorously.”
He continued, “The challenges posed by climate change to human life and development in all countries are becoming more and more noticeable.”
“It is even more urgent that the international community unite and work together to address climate change,” he added.
China’s permanent representative to the United Nations said that the linkages between climate and security have been discussed in many meetings of the Security Council. “It is clear that opinions are still divided and more in-depth discussions are necessary,” he said.
“Developing countries that lack resilience to climate change are seeing a higher incidence of extreme weather events and natural disasters, undermining development gains, exacerbating resource shortages, and sparking clashes between ethnic groups,” he noted.
