[rtl]Baghdad - Iraq today:[/rtl]
[rtl]The American magazine Newsweek reported that Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani has shown a firm commitment to the climate issue, noting that he is making efforts to secure an international agreement on the sustainable use of transboundary water resources, while confirming that the fight against corruption has produced positive results that have made the country attract foreign direct investments. And big.[/rtl]
[rtl]The magazine published an article by British diplomat James Watt, in which he said: “Drought has always been a major issue in the Middle East, where the first water treaty dates back more than 4,500 years. Extreme weather events, including widespread drought, exacerbated by climate change, have led to With the recent conclusion of COP28, the question remains as to whether the Dubai Consensus will positively impact countries like Iraq, with the Tigris and Euphrates rivers suffering from excessive drought, as highlighted by the likes of the New York Times and Washington Post. Iraq has emerged. "As a particularly weak state."[/rtl]
[rtl]She added, “Iraqi Prime Minister Muhammad Shia al-Sudani called for strengthening international cooperation in the field of climate change, as he indicated in the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) that the cradle of civilization should not be allowed to die of thirst. "[/rtl]
[rtl]The United Nations has warned that since 1973, the marshes of Mesopotamia have lost 78% of their total water resources. Moreover, water availability in the Middle East is set to decline by an additional 30% by 2050 due to climate change.[/rtl]
[rtl]The magazine pointed out that "agriculture, food security, and the economic livelihoods of millions of people who depend on agriculture are threatened, with these concerns confirmed, as Iraqi President Abdul Latif Rashid confirmed in Dubai that this regional crisis goes beyond the issue of water scarcity and affects vital aspects of the country's development."[/rtl]
[rtl]She continued, “On July 25, 2023, Iraq launched various initiatives to confront climate change, which include major efforts to enhance water safety and eliminate waste. Although the Iraqi delegation called for the exclusion of the language of getting rid of fossil fuels due to Its economic dependence on hydrocarbons, climate change remains a concern.” Real for Baghdad,” noting that “Baghdad’s initiatives are in line with the Dubai Consensus, which called for protecting freshwater ecosystems, cultivating urban water resilience initiatives, tripling renewable energy capacity by 2030, and activating the Loss and Damage Fund.”[/rtl]
[rtl]She stressed, “However, the Fund, which has been criticized for not going far enough, represents a positive first step taken by major emitters to acknowledge the damage caused by their actions. According to the latest World Bank data, per capita carbon dioxide emissions reached “In Iraq annually, 3.8 metric tons are produced, much less than the United States’ emissions of 13 metric tons and only 12 percent of Qatar’s emissions of 31.7 metric tons.”[/rtl]
[rtl]She stated, “With the conclusion of COP28, the question now is the urgent demands of countries suffering from climate change such as Iraq can be met, and how the results of the summit can directly achieve the required change,” noting that “Iraq is still waiting to reach a consensual agreement.” Basin-wide between riparian countries on the management of the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers. While initiatives to improve water resource management are necessary, Iraq will find it difficult to succeed in this area as resources become more scarce.”[/rtl]
[rtl]The magazine continued, “The resources allocated by the Loss and Damage Fund are widely considered insufficient to compensate the countries most affected by climate change. However, although the results of COP28 appear to fall short of addressing Iraq's concerns, this does not mean that Baghdad's participation has failed to achieve “Some positive climate results, especially as it looks to reassert itself on the world stage.”[/rtl]
[rtl]She also stated that “Baghdad, represented by a 300-strong delegation, demonstrated its firm commitment to the climate issue and its continued desire to meet the urgent needs of its growing population, which has long suffered from conflict and distress, something that has become an essential element in the Sudanese administration. With the opening of its first pavilion "At the first ever UN Climate Change Conference, the Iraqi climate crisis was placed at the forefront of international discussions. These efforts come on top of the country's historic access to the UN Water Convention in March, making it the first country in the Middle East to do so.”[/rtl]
[rtl]She said, "These measures demonstrate Sudanese recognition of the climate threat to Iraq's growing population as well as its efforts to secure an international agreement on the sustainable use of transboundary water resources. Iraq has also committed to reducing carbon dioxide emissions from oil and gas production and improving the electricity network through renewable projects."[/rtl]
[rtl]On the other hand, the magazine noted that “fighting corruption, another priority highlighted by the Prime Minister, has yielded positive results, which means that the country is now attracting large foreign direct investments, including renewable energy projects, as evidenced by its recent partnership with France's Total Energies, which is A deal praised by the US State Department.[/rtl]
[rtl]She added: “Iraq is patiently waiting for the countries sharing its German resources to rise to the challenge of distributing them fairly, as ancestors in Mesopotamia did more than 4,500 years ago. In the meantime, the Dubai Consensus appears to have opened the gateway to much-needed change.” “This is something that the current Iraqi administration hopes to address directly.”[/rtl]
