U.S. President Joe Biden is unlikely to attend a gathering of world leaders in November focused on climate change, according to two U.S. officials and another person briefed on the event's planning.
The 28th meeting of the United Nations "Conference of the Parties" on climate, known as COP28, takes places from Nov. 30 to Dec. 12 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, a major oil producer.
Such a deal would be a feather in the Democratic president's cap ahead of a 2024 presidential election where many liberal and younger voters rank climate change as a top issue. Biden's participation in last year's COP27 event in Egypt was announced just two weeks prior to the event. There, he touted the climate provisions in the then-recently passed Inflation Reduction Act.
