G77 walks out of COP15 meeting

Tension between developing and developed countries builds as climate summit enters its fifth day
The chief negotiator for 134 developing nations left the UN Climate Change Conference (COP15) yesterday in anger.
Lumumba Stanislaus Di-Aping from Sudan, the G77 group’s top negotiator, is also accusing Denmark of driving the climate summit into the ground.
‘Things are not going well,’ he said after walking out from an hour-long negotiation. ‘It’s very problematic that there’s a different agenda running alongside the official UN process,’ Di-Aping told Politiken newspaper.
When asked to elaborate on those comments, he said:
’Your prime minister has chosen to protect the rich countries, and that’s not ok,’ referring to Denmark’s Lars Løkke Rasmussen.
‘If the Copenhagen summit ends in failure, the whole Scandinavian multilateral tradition will be jeopardised. What your prime minister is doing is completely against the spirit of the foreign aid Denmark and the Danish people have given to Africa for so many years,’ said Di-Aping.
The G77 group represents 134 mainly developing countries, including China, Indonesia and Argentina.
COP15 President Connie Hedegaard, Denmark’s former climate minister, has refused to comment on the case.
