China's UN ambassador Fu Cong told a UNGA high-level meeting on climate
adaptation Beijing seeks stronger global climate governance and faster, fair
green transitions. He set out three priorities: reinforce multilateral action to
fully implement the UNFCCC and Paris Agreement; accelerate a green, just
transition with nationally determined pathways and build a fair, open governance
framework for critical minerals to underpin the energy transition; and boost
climate-action capacity — developed countries should meet commitments, and
multilateral development banks and the private sector must scale up climate
finance to help developing countries close funding, technology and capacity
gaps. He urged greater international cooperation on early warning, risk
assessment and disaster risk reduction, and called for mechanisms to enable
rapid disbursement from loss-and-damage funds.
