Dr. A.Z. Hilali (IR Expert):

Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif is in Baku representing Pakistan at the Climate Action Summit of COP-29. Pakistan is among the most vulnerable countries to climate change. Couple of years back, the world witnessed devastating floods in Pakistan due to which over 55% agricultural land badly suffered. In the past, the developed countries agreed to establish a fund to help developing countries ravaged by the impacts of global warming. The consensus was reached to this effect by the COP27 in Sharm-el-Sheikh, Egypt was a momentous achievement. The historic fund offers hope to communities across the world fighting for their survival from climate stress. The Prime Minister will definitely highlight the challenges faced by Pakistan and other developing countries due to climate change.
