BRAZIL: Weakened by the COP
The United Nations (UN) COP25 climate talks taking place under Chile’s leadership in Madrid, Spain, concluded with a two-day delay on 15 December.

Such a sense of disappointment also prevailed amongst representatives from both the Brazilian government and civil society, although not for the same reasons.
