top priority. Monitoring and discussions have already begun with
the three Caspian littoral countries," he explained.

environmental conventions and protocols.
"This is a clear indicator of our country's commitment to the
global environmental and climate agenda and the importance it
attaches to international cooperation.
By hosting COP29, Azerbaijan has become an important center of
dialogue in the climate negotiations process and has played an
active role in strengthening global solidarity. Some time ago,
Azerbaijan successfully hosted the 10th session of the World Urban
Forum together with the UN-Habitat Program. Such events, among
other things, have contributed to the growth of the ecological
culture and ecological thinking of our population," the minister
noted.
