FIJI and Ethiopia have not contributed much to the climate change "we are facing now but that doesn't mean that we should not be involved in the solutions", says Ethiopia's special adviser to the Prime Minister, Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.
Dr Ghebreyesus was on a two-day visit to Fiji and he met with PM Voreqe Bainimarama to discuss climate change and health-related issues before leaving the country yesterday.
"We are really glad that Fiji will be presiding over Conference of the Parties (COP 23) this year. It is very important because Fiji is already confronting climate change and understands the challenges of climate change," he said.
