The President of SL is leaving for the UK to attend the United Nations Climate Change Conference

President Gotabaya Rajapaksa left the island today (October 30) to attend the 26th United Nations Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP26) in the United Kingdom.

 

The United Nations Climate Change Conference is scheduled to take place in Glasgow, Scotland from tomorrow (October 31) to November 12 to discuss climate change and to talk about how countries implement their strategies to tackle the climate crisis.

 

And Xi, who has not left China during the pandemic, is unlikely to travel to Glasgow, although COP26 President Alok Sharma said Tuesday he still hopes the Chinese leader will attend.
