(TST) NO COP29

BRUSSELS – World leaders from major economies including the United States, the European Union and Brazil are planning to skip the 2024 United Nations climate change summit, known as COP29, in Baku, Azerbaijan.

European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen will not attend COP29 because of political developments in Brussels, a commission spokesperson told Reuters on Nov 5.

Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva had already cancelled his trip to COP29 following a head injury in October.

China, Japan, Australia and Mexico are also absent from the UN’s latest agenda for leaders’ speeches at COP29. The EU will be represented at the summit by European Council president Charles Michel and the bloc’s climate policy chief, Mr Wopke Hoekstra.
