The Conference of the Parties held an important session to present the final text that had been reached, and it was described as historic, as 198 parties unanimously pledged to reduce carbon emissions, which contributed to reaching the COP28 targets and exceeding the specified ambitions.

COP28 achieved an outcome that respects science and preserves the possibility of avoiding the rise in global temperature exceeding the level of 1.5 degrees Celsius in response to the global toll. While the Conference of the Parties witnessed negotiating and diplomatic efforts made by the conference presidency throughout the year to communicate with all parties in preparation for the conference.
