Nepal stated that climate change in the Himalayan region is a global challenge linked to water security, food production, energy, and economic stability. Foreign Minister Shishir Khanal noted that climate-related disasters, such as the August disaster in the Bhote Koshi corridor, caused extensive damage to infrastructure and the economy.
