Samoan Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi says no country can fight climate change alone.

Speaking to FBC News in Apia, Tuilaepa said climate change can be controlled if all countries come together and raise their voice to stand against the effects of climate change.

However, he says they will stick to the Small Island Developing States Accelerated Modalities of Action or the SAMOA Pathway.

Tuilaepa adds the pathway will be used for the implementation of sustainable development and poverty eradication.

“Everything that we want all the Pacific Islands, all the islands of the Indian Ocean and all the islands of the Caribbean have been incorporated in the Samoa Pathway you see no country can go into these things alone.”

Tuilaepa adds fighting climate change is not a position that has been proposed by one country but a world approach by all the small island developing states.

This has been incorporated in the SAMOA pathway.
