COP28 president Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber speaks during the Transforming Food Systems in the Face of Climate Change event on the sidelines of the COP28 climate summit at Dubai Expo on December 1, 2023.
"We delivered world first after world first," the UAE summit presidency said in a further social media update.
And we have language on fossil fuels in our final agreement."
Many believed the COP28 summit could only be considered a success if it resulted in a deal to phase out all fossil fuels.
COP28 President Sultan al-Jaber sparked a backlash earlier this month after he claimed there is "no science" behind calls for a phase-out of fossil fuels.
