Soltanov then described natural gas as a "transitional fuel", adding: "We will have a certain amount of oil and natural gas being produced, perhaps forever."

Azerbaijan pledging to limit emissions with one hand while striking fossil fuel deals with the other. Betraying the world to make a quick buck.

Also makes sense that they'd be delusional enough to think their gas money is gonna last forever. What does they think nonrenewable means? This isn't Minecraft where you can just keep digging basically forever.

The BBC has also seen emails between the COP29 team and the fake investors.

In one chain, the team discusses a $600,000 (£462,000) sponsorship deal with a fake company in return for the Socar introduction and involvement in an event about "sustainable oil and gas investing" during COP29.

Also, trying to imply there is any such thing as "sustainable oil and gas" is heinous. It will run out, if this money grubbing doesn't run us out first.
