"Mr President, as we know – according to a number of scientific studies and also Yvo de Boer – emerging countries are today making at least as much effort as Europe with a view to 2020.
We also know that, in the negotiations, there is already a right of scrutiny regarding emerging economies, and that this is exercised more and more through the emissions inventory, through the report on the measures taken. The World Resources Institute has published statistics showing that China stands at around 70 tonnes per capita, a cumulative figure since 1950, whereas the United States stands at 810 tonnes and the EU-27 stands at 413 tonnes.
We therefore kindly ask you to have the good sense, first and foremost, to use the European Parliament resolution as a negotiating mandate. This would be the best thing we could do for the sake of both the climate and our emergence from the crisis in Europe.
Next, I call on the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) to have the intelligence and the credibility to withdraw its amendment that says that emerging countries must do the same thing, must make the same commitments as rich countries. That is not acceptable, that is not serious."@en1
