Foreign Minister Saleheddine Mezouar has
expressed Morocco’s commitment to carry on the momentum and
mobilisation efforts during its mandate of the 22nd Conference of the
Parties (COP22) in Antananarivo.
“The Moroccan presidency is committed to
perpetuating the momentum and mobilisation efforts during its 2017
mandate of the COP22,” Mezouar said during the 32nd session of the
Ministerial Conference of La Francophonie on Thursday, MAP news agency
reported.
While hailing the results of this global
event held in Marrakech, he stressed that everyone will remember this
COP, such as “the COP of action, the COP of inclusiveness, the COP of
the commitment of all”.
Mezouar noted that the global climate
action has taken a new dimension in Marrakech with the flourishing of
structuring initiatives on key themes of sustainable development such as
the Triple A initiative, launched by Morocco, promoting development in
Africa, the global partnership for renewable energies and energy
efficiency, which concerns the development of green energy and the rapid
transformation of the global energy system.
The Minister said this COP, held in the
African continent, responded to the call to place Africa at the heart of
the global reflection.
He added that many initiatives have been
launched to promote the sustainable development of the continent,
mainly focusing on renewable energies and agriculture.
In this regard, Mezouar said that the
African summit of action, which was chaired by King Mohammed VI on the
sidelines of the COP, reinforced this momentum by reaffirming the
commitment of the African leaders in promoting global efforts in order
to combat climate change
