At COP29, the US is looking to engage in negotiations while also looking for pathways to implement the actions agreed to in the negotiations. These negotiations will cover a wide array of topics including deforestation, energy, human rights, and more. Azerbaijan is the host for COP29. Azerbaijan is a fossil fuel nation, and in the past, Azerbaijan was the major supplier of fossil fuels for the Soviet Union, but the nation is now undergoing an energy transition towards sustainable and clean energy. COP29 is focused on financing which is important in every area including nuclear energy. State financing and private sector financing are key aspects to financing energy transitions.
