India Withdraws Bid to Host Annual UN Climate Talks in 2028
The withdrawal follows a review of 2028 commitments and leaves South Korea as a possible contender for the Asia-Pacific slot.
- India has officially withdrawn its offer to host the 33rd edition of the global climate summit, COP33, in 2028, according to senior officials from the Union Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change.
- Internal deliberations over the past year revealed that hosting would require India to prioritize global consensus over its own climate-related national positions, prompting the reversal.
- The United States' exit from the 2015 Paris Agreement and lukewarm participation at recent climate conferences have substantially altered the global climate negotiation landscape, influencing India's decision.
- Prime Minister Narendra Modi had proposed hosting during the 2023 COP28 summit in Dubai, but rotational rights for COP33 now shift to South Korea as the next potential contender.
- The 2028 conference remains critical as COP33 is due to carry out a Global Stocktake assessing global progress toward the Paris Agreement target of keeping temperature rise within 1.5 degrees Celsius.
