Baku: Trkiye's Minister of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, Murat Kurum, has announced that the implementation of commitments made during COP29, particularly the Baku Finance Goal, will be closely monitored at COP31.

According to Azeri-Press News Agency, Kurum emphasized the importance of cooperation and tangible results at COP31. He stated that the global community is eager to see action rather than new promises.
