Floods: Pakistan calls for reparations

Present at the COP 27 climate conference in Egypt from 6 to 18 November 2022, Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has once again called for international assistance. Hit hard by deadly floods in June and July 2022, Pakistan is faced with a deep economic and financial crisis.

In this context, S. Sharif, reminded that despite Pakistan's low emission of greenhouse gases (less than 1%), the country is suffering the dire consequences of climate change. He also stressed the importance of financing losses and damages related to this phenomenon, a theme that has been included for the first time in the COP 27 agenda.
