UK’s Sunak says he will go to COP27 in Egypt

LONDON, 03 November 2022, (TON): UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced he will attend the UN climate change conference, reversing an initial decision not to go because of pressing domestic commitments.

He wrote on Twitter “there is no long-term prosperity without action on climate change. There is no energy without investing in renewables.”

“That is why I will attend @COP27P next week: to deliver on Glasgow’s legacy of building a secure and sustainable future.”

Sunak’s original decision not to attend the gathering in the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh drew the ire of environmental campaigners.
