Turkish COP31 staffer hopes to return to China for studies, talks about favorite food

In an interview with China News Service, Halil Ibrahim Kizil, a Turkish staff member at the 31st United Nations Climate Change Conference that opened Monday in the Turkish coastal city of Antalya, said he hoped to return to China for further studies.

His first choice would be Xiamen University, where he previously studied, though he is also keen to attend Zhejiang University in Hangzhou, he said.

Asked what came to his mind first when he thought of China, the staffer named Chinese food. Scrambled eggs with tomato and dumplings are his favorite dishes, he said.
