About 90 heads of state have confirmed attendance at November's COP27 climate negotiations in Egypt where they will address issues including energy transition and food security at opening sessions, a senior Egyptian official said on Monday.
"We've received a large number of confirmations from around the world, I think the last count was about 90 heads of state but the numbers keep coming in," said Wael Aboulmagd, special representative for the COP27 presidency, without mentioning specific countries.
