Negotiations continue amid disputes over climate finance goals and previous commitments on transitioning from fossil fuels

Azerbaijan has urged negotiators at the Cop29 summit to bridge their differences to come up with with a finance deal, as the UN climate talks looked set to, once again, run into overtime.

In a note to delegates on Friday, reported by Reuters, the Cop29 presidency said:

We encourage parties to continue to collaborate within and across groups with the aim of proposing bridging proposals that will help us to finalise our work here in Baku.
