BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 15. France's approach to COP29 is not constructive, Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov told reporters on the sidelines of COP29, Trend reports.
The minister noted that France considers itself one of the leading states in the field of climate, and its removal from the climate topic under any pretext and reason, as well as its refusal to participate in the conference, is a wrong step.
“Azerbaijan has never mixed the climate topic with any other tensions or disagreements between Azerbaijan and France.
We had many events during the year leading up to the COP, and French negotiators and delegations were invited to all the events. They participated in these events, and our COP team worked with them very constructively. It is a personal matter for everyone to decide one way or another about participation,” the minister added.
