Davos: President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev addressed business representatives from multiple countries during the 'Azerbaijan Executive Breakfast' event. This gathering was part of the broader annual meeting of the World Economic Forum held in Davos. President Aliyev articulated the nation's strategic investment in renewable energy, emphasizing the aim to enhance the livability of Azerbaijan and its region.
According to Azerbaijan State News Agency, President Aliyev explained, "We invest in renewable energy not because we need energy; we invest because we are responsible people, and we want to make at least our country and our region more appropriate for living." He elaborated on the unseen yet impactful issues of pollution and carbon emissions, highlighting the importance for fossil fuel-rich nations to transition towards renewable sources. This shift, he asserted, deserves respect and appreciation from the international community.
