<p>Working together on climate change is a shared priority for the UK, Greece and
Turkey, as well as our other European counterparts. We welcome the emphasis Greece
has given to tackling climate change, boosting green energy, legislating for net zero
2050, enacting an ambitious green, sustainable Recovery Plan and a phasing-out of
coal-fired power stations. We look forward to welcoming Greece and Turkey as active
partners at COP26 in November in Glasgow, along with our other global partners. We
are developing a major green finance conference with Turkey to be held in 2022, designed
to support the development of a green finance eco-system in Turkey in support of COP26
objectives. We have also been working with partners in France, Germany and Italy on
collaborative initiatives to support Turkey's climate change efforts. In 2020/21 we
have proposed a major trade and investment initiative in Turkey targeted at developing
Turkey's 'Green Bond' market in the run up to the COP26 conference. We will continue
to work with our partners on these important issues.</p>
