GLASGOW – President Abdel Fattah El Sisi will be taking part in a World Leaders Summit, which is part of the high-level segment during the UN Climate Change Conference (COP26) that opened in Glasgow on Sunday, said presidential spokesman Bassam Rady Monday.
Sisi will deliver a speech to highlight Egypt’s stance regarding climate change, Rady said, noting that the president is representing the African continent in the gathering.
He made it clear that the file of climate change focuses on two aspects: the responsibility of industrial countries blamed for the greenhouse gas emissions that led to the rise in the temperature of Earth; and the suffering of developing nations from the repercussions.
Sisi is also scheduled to hold bilateral talks with world leaders, including with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, Rady said.
It will be a strategic one-on-one meeting that will tackle relations between Egypt and Britain at the levels of security, information, defense, politics, trade and economy, the spokesman added.
