Antalya, Nov. 11, 2026

Your Excellency President Recep Tayyip Erdogan,
Colleagues,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Friends,

It is a great pleasure to attend the Antalya Leaders' Summit as the special representative of Chinese President Xi Jinping. President Xi pointed out that climate response is a common cause for all humanity. As the adverse impacts of global climate change are emerging at a faster pace, I wish to make four proposals.

First, focus on common goals and strengthen collective actions. It is important to follow the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities, fully and effectively implement the UNFCCC and its Paris Agreement, and pool synergy for global climate governance. Developed countries should take the lead in emission reduction and honor their commitment of climate finance. All parties should fully deliver on their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and strive to do better.

Second, accelerate the green transition and promote low-carbon development. It is important to facilitate the free flow of quality green technology and products, and promote the transition and upgrading of economic and industrial structure. This year, China sets the goal of raising the share of non-fossil fuel energy in power generation to 50 percent, and that of electricity in final energy consumption to 35 percent by 2030. We will unswervingly advance toward carbon peaking and carbon neutrality.

Third, prevent climate disasters and enhance climate resilience. It is important to be committed to both mitigation and adaptation, and strengthen cooperation on disaster prevention and reduction, monitoring and early warning, and rescue, so as to improve climate adaptability. China will enable more countries to use the AI-powered meteorological warning system, or MAZU, to enhance their climate resilience.

Fourth, uphold openness and inclusiveness and deepen international cooperation. It is important to offer more support and assistance to developing countries and jointly build a clean and beautiful world. China continues to promote South-South cooperation projects in response to climate change such as Africa Solar Belt, and will roll out the Global South Climate Action Leadership Program. China will make its contributions to the fair and effective implementation of the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation.

Thank you.
