“Pope Francis will travel to Dubai to take part in COP28, the international climate summit, which begins on November 30, several senior Vatican sources have confirmed to La Croix,” the report read. The pope’s participation in the event had previously been theorized in some media outlets, but La Croix’s report offers the first sign of confirmation on the matter.
The Vatican has yet to issue an official communication on the matter. LifeSiteNews contacted officials seeking comment, but has yet to receive a response.
La Croix’s Vatican sources stated that the Pope had decided to make the trip after privately meeting with COP28 president Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber on October 11. The conference is due to take place from November 30 through December 12, in the United Arab Emirates.
The sultan has described the conference as “a prime opportunity to rethink, reboot, and refocus the climate agenda.”
In his recently published environmental apostolic exhortation Laudate Deum, Pope Francis highlighted the COP28 conference as a key event in human history.
