Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa will take part on Thursday in the COP30 climate summit in Belem, Brazil, from Nov. 6 to 21, the presidency said on Wednesday.
The presidency's media office said Sharaa will pay an official visit to Brazil on Nov. 6-7 to join the summit, which brings together dozens of world leaders.
This will be the first time a Syrian president attends a UN climate conference since the series began in 1995, the office said.
Following the summit, Sharaa is expected to travel to Washington to meet US President Donald Trump.
