Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa joined world leaders at the United Nations COP30 summit in Brazil, pledging his commitment to global efforts to limit climate change, in the latest sign that the war-torn country is returning to the international fold. Al-Sharaa told the Brazil summit on Thursday that his country was fully on board with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change"
"The president acknowledged the complex challenges faced by Syria after the 14-year civil war that finally toppled longtime president Bashar al-Assad last December, in a definitive lightning offensive led by al-Sharaa, while underlining the urgency of tackling climate change, which hit Syria hard this year with a drought unlike any it has seen in over six decades. He called on nations to strengthen bonds of cooperation from the Amazon to the Barada and Euphrates rivers,"
