What to Expect From COP29 in Azerbaijan

This year’s United Nations’ Climate Change Conference, known as COP29, takes place in Baku, Azerbaijan.

The summit comes also days after the re-election of Donald Trump as US President and his presence will loom over negotiators, even though he won’t be at the UN conference in person. Bloomberg's Joumanna Bercetche breaks down what to expect.
