Sanctions Hinder Climate Change Mitigation Efforts - Mnangagwa

President Emmerson Mnangagwa said that Zimbabwe’s efforts to alleviate the effects of climate change are being hindered by sanctions imposed on the country by western countries as he demanded the immediate removal of the restrictions.

Speaking on the second day of the Sharm El Sheikh Implementation Summit in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, at the UN Climate Change Conference (COP27), Mnangagwa said Zimbabwe has embarked on extensive dam construction and the harnessing of renewable energy sources. He said:

My Government is implementing various programmes, including extensive dam construction projects towards climate change adaptation and mitigation for sustainable food and nutrition security.

Further, Zimbabwe is expanding the production and use of renewable energy.

Greater progress would have been made on our climate goals were it not for the albatross of illegal economic sanctions imposed on our country.
