The problem is not the COP28 president

The problem is that the majority of world leaders, thinkers, academics, professionals and supposed leaders of this conference all decided that this should be the leader of this group.

The whole thing's a joke and I'll meet you all in the post apocalyptic wastelands ... if I or any of us survive.

    Actually, it was not a majority decision, it was the turn of the "Asia" UN region to choose the location of this COP. (The previous one - not far away- was theoretically "Africa", and the next one is meant to be eastern-bloc Europe). Of course they could, and should, change the UN traditions (or rebuild from scratch).
