One of the key points in Sheikh Mohamed’s speech was his praise for the success of the UAE Consensus, which was reached at COP28. This agreement outlined a fair and balanced path to a clean energy transition, with a focus on fairness, inclusivity, and respect for each nation’s unique circumstances. The Consensus, he said, played a crucial role in restoring trust in multilateral efforts to combat climate change.

Sheikh Mohamed also called for unity among nations in the fight against climate change. He urged global leaders to put aside divisions and prioritize collective action to benefit all of humanity, stressing that cooperation is essential for achieving meaningful and lasting solutions.

Earlier in the day, the UAE President was warmly welcomed at the summit by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and UN Secretary-General António Guterres.

These discussions focused on enhancing international cooperation, accelerating climate action, and addressing the urgent need to combat the climate crisis.
