UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said on Friday, Oct. 28, that he may not attend the UN’s COP27 in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, citing “depressing domestic challenges.” Yesterday, however, Rishi’s spokesman said, according to the UK’s Guardian:
“The prime minister is focused on pressing domestic issues, most significantly preparing for the autumn statement, so any attendance at COP would depend on progress on preparation for that fiscal event, and that work is ongoing. The prime minister fully recognises the importance of the COP summit and is fully committed to addressing climate change,”
