International Rivers: International Climate Justice and Human Rights Organizations Call on ADB President to Raise Alarms About Vietnam’s Commitment to a Just Energy Transition During Upcoming Visit
While Asian Development Bank (ADB) President, Mr. Masatsugu Asakawa, visits Vietnam next week from March 11-15, we urge him to sound the alarm on the country’s lack of genuine commitment to its Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP) and other climate finance projects while its climate leaders are in jail. The visit will celebrate the 30th anniversary of the re-establishment of credit relations between the ADB and Vietnam, according to the State Bank of Vietnam.
