On November 10, local time, President Xi Jinping's Special Representative and Vice President Han Zheng met with UN Secretary General Guterres while attending the 31st Summit of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in Antalya, Turkey. Han Zheng conveyed President Xi Jinping's cordial greetings to Guterres. Han Zheng said that China attaches great importance to the issue of climate change. Last year, President Xi Jinping announced China's independent national contribution in 2035, clearly stating “strive to do better,” demonstrating China's firm determination and best efforts to combat climate change. This year, China also proposed targets such as reaching 50% of non-fossil energy generation and 35% of terminal energy consumption for electricity by 2030. China focuses on setting goals and implementing actions, and emphasizes that words must be believed and actions must bear fruit, and will continue to provide valuable stability and certainty for global climate governance. Han Zheng said that China is working with the United Nations to carry out international cooperation to combat climate change, firmly uphold and fully implement the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and its Paris Agreement, vigorously carry out South-South cooperation to combat climate change, and respond positively to national early warning initiatives. Currently, the global response to climate change is facing many challenges. In particular, developing countries face difficulties such as lack of funding, poor technology, and insufficient capacity to implement nationally owned contributions, which need to be addressed jointly by the international community. China looks forward to new progress and consensus at COP31 under the leadership of Mr. Secretary General.
