Individuals arriving from abroad, including local residents, will be required to use special buses operating within the airport premises during the initial three days of COP29 in Azerbaijan’s Baku, Chairman of the Board of the Azerbaijan Land Transport Agency under the Ministry of Digital Development and Transport Anar Rzayev said at a briefing dedicated to the transportation plan for the conference. AzVision.az reports.
“Vehicles will only be allowed to enter the airport to drop off passengers at Terminal 2 in the first three days,” he stated.
To note, the 29th session of the Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP29) will be held in Azerbaijan in November this year. The decision was made at the plenary meeting of COP28 held in Dubai on December 11 last year.
The UN Framework Convention on Climate Change is an agreement signed at the Rio Earth Summit in June 1992 to prevent dangerous human interference in the climate system. The acronym COP (Conference of Parties) stands for Conference of Parties, which is the highest legislative body overseeing the implementation of the Framework Convention on Climate Change.
A total of 198 countries are parties to the convention. Unless the parties have decided otherwise, COP is held annually. The first COP event was held in March 1995 in Berlin, and its secretariat is located in Bonn.
