BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 13. Under the leadership of the Troika, we can pave the way to a future that is sustainable, equitable, and secure for all, Deputy Foreign Minister of the Republic of Azerbaijan and COP29 Lead Negotiator Yalcin Rafiyev said at the "Troika High-level Dialogue: Our Roadmap to Mission 1.5 towards a future of shared prosperity", Trend reports.
"The year began with the official launch of the Troika's vision and approach at the Climate Ministerial in Copenhagen. We successfully inclusively engaged all stakeholders, addressing every facet of climate action, with a particular focus on mitigation, just transition, adaptation, forestry, and climate finance. A key emphasis on Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) was evident through initiatives such as the Troika's NDC Incubation Workshops and informal OTS consultations at SD60 in Bonn, which were designed to deepen understanding of UN support for the development and implementation of NDCs," he said.
Rafiyev further stressed that the Troika has consistently sought to create synergies between global climate agendas, advancing both ambitions and financial mechanisms, while overcoming critical implementation challenges and strengthening the climate resilience of developing countries.
"The path forward is clear, though not without difficulties. We must turn our ambitions into actions, and commitments into tangible outcomes. I am confident that under the Trio's leadership, we can pave the way to a future that is sustainable, equitable, and secure for all. Members of the Trio can unite to support key initiatives that prioritize global climate financing and transparency. By supporting each other’s climate goals, we can create a strong and meaningful agenda for future challenges.
Today, we reflect on the progress made, share views on upcoming challenges, and reaffirm our commitments. We strive to create a space for open dialogue, constructive reflections, and a shared vision as we move through this crucial decade in the fight for climate action," the official added.
