Russia and Turkey have adopted a joint statement on working on a climate agreement. This is reported on the website of the Ministry of Economic Development.
It is planned to develop cooperation with Turkey in the field of regulating greenhouse gas emissions, based on the launch of the pilot phase of the Turkish quota trading system and the experience of the Sakhalin experiment.
"We believe that climate policy measures should take into account national specificities, support socio-economic development and create additional opportunities for mutually beneficial cooperation. Climate measures should help reduce emissions without becoming instruments of unjustified unilateral trade restrictions," said Maxim Reshetnikov, head of the Ministry of Economic Development, quoted on the website.
