In that framework, Minister Shokry displayed Egypt's vision on the prospective outcomes of COP 27, and that aims for the accomplishment of climate pledges, turning them into a reality.

 

The minister similarly underscored the salience of preserving the current momentum for international climate work in a way that raises the ambitions bar, achieves the goal of reducing the temperature degree by 1.5, and ensuring that climate pledges are not influenced by the current geo-political situation.

 

Minister Shokry concluded by stipulating that all parties involved in international climate work should actively take part in COP 27 and its outcomes, particularly those pertaining to coexistence with climate change impact, and securing climate financing that fulfills the needs of developing countries.
