President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi followed up on Saturday with Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly and a number of ministers on the work of the high ministerial committee to prepare for Egypt’s hosting of the COP 27 in Sharm El-Sheikh next November.

The president directed that all necessary financial resources be made available to equip the city of Sharm El-Sheikh at the highest level and that various stakeholders continue to strengthen their efforts to host this global event.

He also stressed the importance of hosting the Conference of Parties on Climate Change (COP 27) to reflect Egypt’s regional and international status and demonstrate its capabilities.

“The conference should highlight the country’s huge efforts to achieve a green transformation, protect the environment, and increase the use of clean energy through various national projects related to natural gas, electricity, solar energy, wind power, green hydrogen, and environmentally friendly transportation,” he said.

For its part, the ministerial committee presented the main topics of the upcoming conference and the desired results as well as the ongoing coordination in this regard with the current British presidency of the conference.
