Some 90 heads of state have been confirmed for next month’s UN climate conference, with host country Egypt sending a warning shot to Britain – from whom it will inherit the Cop27 presidency – not to backtrack on its commitments to fight global warming.
An Egyptian government spokesperson said Cairo was “disappointed” by reports that King Charles III, who'd been due to give a speech at the event, had been told not to attend by British Prime Minister Liz Truss.
