Moscow intends to depoliticize the cooperation in the field of combating climate change, the head of the Russian delegation at the 2022 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP27) and Special Presidential Representative on Climate Issues, Ruslan Edelgeriyev, said on Sunday.

"We are committed to pragmatic and depoliticized cooperation based on combating climate change, adhering to the UN sustainable development goals and commitment to efforts to eradicate poverty and hunger in developing and least developed countries," Edelgeriyev told reporters.

The head of the Russian delegation noted that combating global warming requires consolidated efforts.

"Russia proceeds from the fact that under the leadership of Egypt, Asian and African states will be able to voice their aspirations and approaches to the climate agenda, including in the field of financing," Edelgeriyev added.

Russia intends to continue supplying the countries in need, especially on the African continent, with food, fertilizers, and other vital products, Edelgeriyev noted.

In the same context, on October 23, Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry hoped that the fragile geopolitical situation will not negatively impact the upcoming climate change conference of the United Nations (COP27).  

The 27th UN climate change conference, known as COP27, is scheduled to occur in Egypt’s Red Sea resort of Sharm El-Sheikh from November 6-18.  

"COP27 will be held amidst a global context of strong geopolitical and geo-economic tension and polarisation that we hope will not make it more difficult to tackle common global challenges, notably climate change," Shoukry told the Emirates News Agency (WAM).  

All participants must honor their duties and focus on climate change issues, he added.  

The participants in the climate summit should realize that the essence of this conference is to tackle climate change challenges, Shoukry emphasized, and that its purpose is not to deal with any other issues that are irrelevant to climate action.
