SHARMA EL SHEIKH —<\/strong> President of Somalia, Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and a delegation he led reached Sharma El Sheikh, Egypt, to attend the International Conference of Climate of the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

The President accompanied by the Somali experts on Climate will attend the COP27 conference alongside the other leaders of the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Somali government will deliver the changes of the climate that has affected the Somali people and the plans they have to tackle the droughts, famine and floods.<\/span><\/p>\n

The COP27 presidency is headed by the foreign ministry, which has a pool of experienced negotiators and which foreign diplomats say has far better capacity than other ministries working on climate.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is hoping to leverage that expertise to help achieve progress in climate negotiations, despite an unpromising backdrop for commitments from major nations or big finance.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope that it will be a watershed moment\u201d, Wael Aboulmagd, a veteran Egyptian diplomat and special representative for COP27, told reporters on Friday, noting that science shows the world lagging behind on every aspect of the fight against climate change.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone is aware of the gravity of the situation, the enormity of the challenge.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Egypt is presenting itself as a champion of Africa and the Global South, building on a diplomatic campaign to win African backing in a dispute with Ethiopia over a dam on the Blue Nile that Cairo sees as a threat to its water supplies.<\/span><\/p>\n

It has been pressing for a \u201cjust\u201d energy transition that allows poor countries space to develop economically, a boost to cheap climate finance, and addressing compensation demands by vulnerable states for damages from climate-induced extreme weather events.<\/span><\/p>\n
