Britain said on Friday it had appointed business minister Alok Sharma as the full-time President of the United Nations COP26 climate conference to be held in Glasgow this November.
The government said the event would be the largest summit the United Kingdom has ever hosted, bringing together representatives from nearly 200 countries.
Sharma will be replaced as business minister by Kwasi Kwarteng.
