TL;DR Summary

The UAE has invited Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to attend the United Nations’ COP28 Climate Summit in Dubai, which could cause diplomatic tensions for countries that continue to impose sanctions on his regime. If Assad attends, it would be his first global summit since the start of the country’s civil war in 2011. The UN climate summit has already attracted controversy for appointing as its president the CEO of the state-owned Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, one of the world’s biggest oil and gas producers.
