#COP25 demonstrated once again how critically important and urgent maintaining unity and trust in the multilateral climate negotiations process is”.

[G77 & China - COP25 @G77And]

#COP25 takes place at a crucial historical juncture. 2020 is quite literally around the corner. This is the year in which Parties’ pre-2020 actions under the Convention are supposed to conclude and lay the foundation for future climate actions for Parties to the Paris Agreement”.

G77 & China: Another relevant agenda item under this session is reporting and review of Annex I Parties, the group of 77 and China sees with great concern that countries still did not submit their 7th National Communication and their 3rd Biennial Report under the Convention.

In addition, the lack of consolidated data of Annex I Parties creates great difficulties to understand the speed and deepness of Annex I Parties implementation of their 2020 commitments adopted on mitigation and provision of means of implementation by 2020.
