France's ecology minister, Agnes Pannier-Runacher, announced she was cancelling her trip to Baku to take part in the Cop29 talks.
On Wednesday, representatives from Milei's government were ordered to leave the Azerbaijani capital. Speaking to the Guardian, Argentina's undersecretary for the environment, Ana Lamas – the country's most senior representative on the climate and nature after Milei dissolved the environment ministry – confirmed the decision, which was first reported by Climatica.
"It's true. We have instructions from the ministry of foreign affairs to no longer participate. That's all I can tell you," she said. Lamas said the decision applied only to Cop29, when asked if Argentina was planning to leave the Paris agreement.
There is widespread concern about the future of the climate accord after the election in the US of Donald Trump, who has pledged to exit the agreement for the second time.
