G77 representative: Climate deal worst in history
[Iran Press TV Latest] A representative from Sudan for a major bloc of developing nations (G77) has called a draft climate deal in Copenhagen the "worst in history". Lumumba Stanislas Dia-ping of Sudan, chairing the Group of 77 and the bloc of 130 poor nations, accused the United States and host Denmark of trampling on the rights of poor countries. "Today's events really represent the worst developments in climate change negotiations in history," Dia-ping told reporters. But it remained to be seen if he would have all the developing nations on board, as leaders of key nations including China, India, Brazil and South Africa had negotiated personally with US President Barack Obama.
