Will the major climate conference become an anti-Israel event?
Right at the start of the 28th UN World Climate Conference (COP) in Dubai, the first excitement: the president of last year’s conference, Egypt’s Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry (71), called for a minute’s silence for killed Palestinians – and expressly did NOT name the Israeli victims of Hamas – war of terror.

▶︎ In his opening speech, he asked the diplomats present for a moment of silence for the two recently deceased climate scientists Saleemul Huq and Pete Betts. He praised their achievements in climate protection. When those present had already stood up for the minute’s silence, COP President Shoukry slipped the sentence into the joint remembrance: “and all civilians who died in the ongoing conflict in Gaza.”
The war of terror once morest Israel was not mentioned with a single syllable. Shoukry ignored the fact that Palestinian terrorists murdered more than 1,200 people and abducted more than 200 on October 7th.

His sympathy – and that of those present who stood up without protest – was only for Gaza. According to Hamas, more than 14,000 people died there. It is unclear how many of these are members of Hamas and other terrorist organizations.
The diplomats present followed Shoukry’s call for a minute’s silence. A little later, as per protocol, he handed over his presidency to this year’s World Climate Conference leader Sultan Ahmed al-Jabir (50).
The federal government is traveling to the two-week UN climate conference with more than 250 employees. In total, around 70,000 negotiators, journalists, activists and experts will meet at the climate conference for two weeks in the “Expo City” in Dubai, including politicians from around 200 countries. The goal: the exit from fossil energy sources such as oil and the financing of the consequential damage of global warming.
