Clintin Climate and India

Submitted by admin on Sunday, 19 July 2009No Comment

Our correspondent says the talks in Delhi promise to be spirited, although there is no indication of what outcome is expected. Mrs Clinton has sought to allay fears the US will press India on carbon emission cuts but will also argue they do not contradict economic development.She will meet Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and other officials, with relations with Pakistan also sure to be high on the agenda.The BBC’s Kim Ghattas, who is travelling with Mrs Clinton, says the secretary of state accepts that developed countries made the mistakes that led to the current environmental problems, but that countries like India could lead in a different direction.The key date for climate change is December – when a summit in Copenhagen, Denmark will look to forge a new international treaty that will replace the Kyoto Protocol, which expires in 2012.
