Later this year, Azerbaijan will host the UN’s COP29 climate summit. It’s one of the top 10 most fossil-fuel-dependent countries in the world – but that’s all set to change as Azerbaijan looks to transition to a greener future.
It’s one of the many issues The Agenda‘s Juliet Mann discusses in an exclusive interview with Azerbaijan’s Minister of Economy Mikaiyil Jabbarov. They also talk about future partnerships with China and the EU and the country’s transition to a digital future.
The episode also examines the climate change issues facing Azerbaijan in the run-up to COP29 in November with Kaveh Guilanpour, Vice President for International Strategies at the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions.
