Goyal emphasized India's low per capita emissions despite its large population and highlighted the need for developed countries to bear greater responsibility for climate mitigation costs. He also questioned the fairness of policies like the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, urging equitable support for the Global South's clean energy transition.
