The United Arab Emirates, India, and France have approved a trilateral initiative to carry out energy projects with a focus on solar and nuclear sources, fight climate change, and protect biodiversity, particularly in the Indian Ocean region.

According to a statement from India’s External Affairs Ministry, the nations will host trilateral events in conjunction with the UAE’s hosting of COP28 climate negotiations this year and India’s presidency of the Group of 20 Rich and Developing Nations.

The foreign ministers of the three countries decided to adopt a roadmap for the implementation of the initiative through a call which was a follow-up of their September meeting on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York.

They are expected to expand their cooperation through initiatives such as the Mangrove Alliance for Climate, led by the UAE, and the Indo-Pacific Parks Partnership led by India and France. It was also agreed that the three countries would focus on key issues such as single-use plastic pollution, desertification and food security in the context of the International Year of Millets, the statement said.

The possibility of working with the Indian Ocean Rim Association to pursue projects on clean energy, the environment and biodiversity will be explored in the course of the initiative.

The countries will also seek to ensure greater alignment of their respective economic, technological and social policies with the objectives of the 2015 Paris Agreement to combat climate change and to accelerate actions and investments needed for a sustainable low-carbon future.
