(Nafeez) Ahmed noted that last month, on the eve of COP26, foreign secretary Liz Truss flew to Saudi Arabia and Qatar to explore a potential trade deal with the six Gulf Cooperation Council countries of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. https://www.medialens.org/2021/a-crime-against-humanity-the-greenwash-festival-of-cop26/ The UK likes to do its bit. The differential treatment of indigenous activists and fossil fuel lobbyists at this Cop just shows the farce it is. And that dealing with climate change is inextricably bound up with dealing with gross inequality.
