ANKARA: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan canceled his participation in the global climate conference in Scotland’s city of Glasgow after the UK did not provide the required security and protocol.

According to the Turkish news agency, the Turkish president had to attend the climate conference in Glasgow after the G20 conference in Italy, but he canceled the Glasgow conference when he did not get the required security.

Erdogan returned from Italy to Turkey without attending a climate conference in Glasgow.

The UK is hosting the world conference on climate change in Glasgow, in which international leaders, analysts and traders are participating.

Pope Francis, religious leader of the Catholic Christians, said in a statement that it is a moment to dream big and revise our priorities.
