On the same social network, the Ministry of Science, Technology and Environment (Citma) explained that the conference ended with the First Global Assessment of the implementation of the Paris Agreement, a text that calls for progress in the face of the challenges.

At the closing of the event, Anayansi Rodríguez Camejo, Cuban Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, highlighted in X the realization of the Emirates Consensus, the result of the COP 28 negotiations since its inception on November 30.

The diplomat also highlighted fundamental aspects of the Global Assessment of the Paris Agreement, which raises the need to urgently and deeply reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

She proposed measures such as the transition to energy systems without fossil fuels, tripling renewable energies by 2030, and progressively reducing coal-based energy.
