President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu has thanked China for its continued support for the Maldives’ environmental efforts.

Speaking at the launch event organised by Shandong Province, China, on the sidelines of the 29th Conference of the Parties (COP29) under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), Muizzu acknowledged President Xi Jinping and the Chinese government's commitment to green and low-carbon development.

He highlighted China’s goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060, praising it as an inspiring example of leadership and commending China’s role in advancing global climate action.

"By investing in green technology and promoting carbon reduction, China is not only reducing emissions but also creating new economic opportunities," he said.

He underscored the urgency of reducing emissions and protecting the environment, stressing that the Maldives and other vulnerable nations are determined to be active leaders in driving a sustainable future.

"I take this opportunity to thank Chinese President Xi Jinping and his government for their continued support to the Maldives in its efforts for eco-friendly and low-carbon development," said Muizzu.
