UN Secretary-General assesses Kazakhstan’s chairmanship in SCO

Kazakhstan’s chairmanship in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) has been marked by significant efforts to enhance regional cooperation and address the development of trade, economic, cultural, and humanitarian issues. This was discussed by UN Secretary-General António Guterres in an exclusive interview with KazInform International News Agency. He noted that Kazakhstan is actively engaged in addressing climate change and water scarcity issues in the region, calling on countries to take concrete actions.

«They should include concrete plans to cut the production and consumption of fossil fuels by at least 30 percent by 2030. I am sure that Kazakhstan will play its full part in the energy transition, including at this year’s Conference of Parties in Azerbaijan,» Guterres said.
