£1.5 Billion UK support for Climate Change Fund
More than 40,000 people from all over the world attended the Sharm El-Sheikh Climate Conference, to discuss climate issues and ways to address them
During the conference, unexpected things happened from some presidents. In a strange incident, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak suddenly hurried out of the COP27 climate summit meeting in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt, on Monday, causing the attendees and media to be confused.
· Directed by the Prime Minister
A video clip was widely circulated showing Sunak's aides pulling him out of the conference room before he delivers his speech at the Conference of Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
British journalist Leo Hickman said in a series of tweets that an aide whispered in Sunak's ear for more than a minute, but the British Prime Minister remained in place. However, another assistant stepped onto the platform and asked him to leave.
It is not yet known what information Sunak received from his aides that made him leave the Climate Summit because of it.
· £1.5 billion for Climate Change Fund
After a while, Sunak returned again as if nothing had happened to deliver a speech in which he announced that Britain was still committed to donating to the Climate Change Fund, and that it would work hard to double it by 2025, equivalent to 1.5 billion pounds.
In his first international appearance since becoming Britain's prime minister, Sunak said the war was the reason for urgent action on climate change decisions. "We can leave for our children a greener planet and a more prosperous future...there is still room for hope."
The United Nations Climate Change Conference, commonly referred to as the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP27), opened in the resort of Sharm el-Sheikh on November 6.
