Joa\u0303o Lourenc\u0327o stated that when projecting a new climate financing objective for the period after 2025, a whole set of factors must be taken into account that do not weaken or weaken the economies of developing countries, which are not capable of give up from one moment to the next the natural resources that are sources of foreign exchange.<\/p>\n
