Despite Negligible Emissions, Maldives Disproportionately Affected by Climate Change: Speaker Aslam

Speaker of Parliament Mohamed Aslam addressed the 148th Assembly of the Inter-parliamentary Union in Geneva, saying the Maldives contributes negligibly to global emissions yet suffers disproportionately from climate change. In his speech he also raised terrorism, the drug epidemic, women's under-representation in the People's Majlis, and called for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza.
