Right-wing president Javier Milei has withdrawn Argentina ’s delegation from the Cop29 UN climate summit in Baku, Azerbaijan. The decision, confirmed by delegate officials, means the South American country will not participate any further in the UN climate negotiations that are expected to conclude with a treaty next week.

Argentine delegates at the COP29 United Nations climate summit in Baku, Azerbaijan, have been ordered to withdraw from negotiations and return home, according to a source at the country’s foreign ministry.

Government orders Argentina’s representatives to walk out of ongoing global climate conference, in order not to endorse UN’s Agenda 2030, which has been criticised by President Milei.

Argentina's libertarian President Javier Milei will meet with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump and tycoon Elon Musk next week in the United States, a government spokesperson said on Thursday.
