COP26 was discussed at the Institute of International Relations of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Ashgabat.
On 9 November Embassy Chargé d’Affaires Mr John Hamilton participated in a nationally televised roundtable organised by the Institute of International Relations to discuss developments at the CoP26 Climate Conference ongoing in Glasgow.
COP26 is the world’s last, best chance to reach agreement on the action needed to avert catastrophic climate change and support those already experiencing its effects. Nations must take action to honour the goals of the Paris Agreement and keep a 1.5-degree limit on temperature rises within reach.
Turkmenistan’s delegation to CoP26 was led by the Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers of Turkmenistan, Serdar Berdimuhamedov, the most senior representative Turkmenistan has ever sent to this series of meetings.
Participants in the roundtable agreed that the matter of climate change was a serious global problem needing international action to address it.
Mr Hamilton welcomed the Deputy Chairman’s announcement in Glasgow that Turkmenistan is “ready to provide maximum assistance in solving climate problems” and looked forward to working with Turkmenistan while the UK held the COP Presidency.
