アフリカの石油生産国は、化石燃料廃止協議において掘削継続を強く主張している。

By

-- AFP通信はコロンビアで開催中の協議から、石油資源が豊富なアフリカ諸国が、化石燃料の段階的廃止に向けた世界的な取り組みにもかかわらず、経済成長を支えるために石油掘削を継続すると表明したと報じた。 複数の産油国の関係者は、化石燃料収入への依存度が高い現状では、石油・ガスからの急速な移行は不可能だと主張した。 「段階的廃止ではなく、段階的縮小だ。それがメッセージだ」と、ナイジェリアの地域開発大臣顧問であるオヌオハ・マグナス・チディ氏はAFP通信に語った。 AFP通信によると、代表団は、急激な転換は雇用喪失や経済混乱につながる可能性があると警告し、移行を円滑に進めるための財政支援と政策の柔軟性を求めた。
