Environmental activist Greta Thunberg participated in a conference examining the intersection of human rights and environmental protection in relation to Azerbaijan’s actions. The event, titled ‘The Impact of Azerbaijan’s Aggression on Human Rights and Environmental Protection,’ was held at the American University of Armenia as an independent side event parallel to COP29. During the conference, Thunberg criticized the United Nations’ decision to select Azerbaijan, a nation heavily dependent on petroleum exports, as the host country for its climate summit, describing the choice as ‘extreme hypocrisy.’
