At a daily news briefing on November 24, 2025, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning announced that China will work with other parties to fully implement the outcomes of the 30th Conference of the Parties (COP30) under the UNFCCC. The conference concluded earlier this month with the adoption of the Belem Political Package after two weeks of intense negotiations.
The Belem Political Package, hailed as positive and balanced, underscores a shared determination to tackle climate change through solidarity and cooperation. By outlining clear steps for the next decade, it provides a roadmap for translating the goals of the UNFCCC and the Paris Agreement into concrete action.
In response to calls from developing countries, COP30 secured two landmark provisions: the first-ever dialogue on climate-related trade-restrictive unilateral measures and the creation of a just transition mechanism. These milestones aim to ensure that climate policies are fair, inclusive and designed to protect vulnerable communities.
Mao highlighted that the Chinese delegation was fully engaged in negotiations across all agenda items, working toward these positive outcomes. He pointed to the embrace of "Striving to do better" – a phrase introduced in the COP30 outcome document that President Xi Jinping emphasized at the UN Climate Summit – as the guiding political message for global climate governance in the coming years.
"China will work with other parties to fully implement the outcomes of the conference, advance global cooperation on addressing climate change, and jointly build a clean and beautiful world," Mao said, signaling Beijing's commitment to collaborative action and sustainable development.
This pledge underscores Beijing's resolve to drive global cooperation, transforming political will into action for a cleaner, more sustainable world over the next decade.
