A post by @RTErdogan on X.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said countries least responsible for climate change often bear its heaviest costs, calling for easier access to finance, technology and capacity-building for least-developed countries and small island developing states. In a post on X tagged #COP31Türkiye, he framed the issue as a matter of equity ahead of the COP31 climate summit that Türkiye is due to host. The remarks signal Ankara's intended emphasis for the talks: channeling climate funding and technical support toward the most exposed and least-resourced economies. No specific figures, funding pledges or timelines were attached to the statement. What to watch next is whether Türkiye's COP31 presidency converts the rhetoric into concrete commitments on adaptation finance and technology transfer.
