Georgian President Mikheil Kavalashvili said at COP31 in Turkey that the country is vulnerable to climate risks. In his speech, he linked climate change to international security, economic stability, energy and food security and warned that it threatens infrastructure, ecosystems, economic development and human life and health. According to Kvalashvili, Georgia is aware of global challenges and sees the climate agenda not only as a threat, but also as an opportunity to strengthen international security. He emphasized Tbilisi's commitment to peace and dialogue, its willingness to work closely with partners and participate in all global initiatives aimed at environmental sustainability and environmental improvement.
