Preparations for the COP28 (Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Convention on Climate Change), scheduled for late 2023 in Dubai, were the focus of talks, Monday in Rabat, between the Minister of Energy Transition and Sustainable Development, Leila Benali and the Minister of Industry and Advanced Technologies, Sultan Bin Ahmed Al Jaber, special envoy of the United Arab Emirates for climate change.
In a statement to the press after the meeting, Benali said the talks focused on “the presidency of the United Arab Emirates of the COP28 to be held in November 2023,” adding that the meeting was an opportunity to explore ways to make this event a “success for both countries.”
Benali also expressed the determination of the two countries to implement, in the context of COP 28, win-win projects and work on environmental issues relating to energy transition, climate change and sustainable development.
The Minister stressed that Morocco and the United Arab Emirates will work together to make this annual meeting a “historic” moment that will shed light on climate issues including those related to the countries of the deep south.
The visit of the Emirati minister to Morocco is part of the distinguished relations of partnership and cooperation between the two sister countries.
It is also in line with the prospect of the United Arab Emirates hosting the 28th session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP28) in 2023.
