With just days to go until world leaders, scientists, and climate action advocates convene for the UN Climate Change Conference in Baku, COP29, the host country Azerbaijan is fully prepared to welcome the key annual summit - despite having only ten months to prepare. That’s according to UN Resident Coordinator Vladanka Andreeva who has been speaking to UN News’s Liudmila Blagonravova about the preparations and objectives for the COP, including the role played by the UN’s country team in Azerbaijan, consisting of 18 different agencies. Ms. Andreeva emphasized that the host nation is leading by example, setting itself the target of achieving over 30 percent renewable energy production, as well as a 35 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, despite being a country rich in oil and gas reserves.
