Right-wing president Javier Milei has withdrawn Argentina’s delegation from the ongoing Cop29 UN climate summit in Baku, Azerbaijan. The decision, confirmed by officials in the delegation, means the South American country will not participate any further in the UN climate negotiations that are expected to conclude with a treaty next week.

World leaders are converging Tuesday at the United Nations annual climate conference in Baku, Azerbaijan although the big names and powerful countries are noticeably absent, unlike past climate talks which had the star power of a soccer World Cup.
