Danish text leak sparks debate over talks success

PINAKI ROY from Copenhagen
Within two days of UN climate change summit in Copenhagen confusion has arisen over its success as distrust mounted among the developed and developing nations following the leaks of 'Danish text',
The third day's talks started on Wednesday morning following G77 and China press conference held on Tuesday evening where the coalition uttered some strong words against the developed nations.
The 'Danish text' called

'Adoption of the Copenhagen .Agreement' was leaked out on Monday night and it is now an 'open secret' to the delegates. The Guardian, however, broke the news Tuesday afternoon.
The text says that the world leaders will sign a political agreement next week This text bypassed the sprit of Bali Action Plan' which mandated legally binding documents not a political one.
G77 and China held a press conference on Tuesday eve-ning and ambassador Lumumba Stanislaus DiAping spoke harsh words against developed nations: “I would like to say on behalf of G77 that this is a very serious development. It's a major violation that threatens the success of the Copenhagen negotiations."
Before the press conference of G77 the Chinese delegations had a press conference where they did not allow any foreign journalists. Only Chinese journalists were permitted and they talked everything in China language.
The atmosphere in Bella Centre where the conference is being held was tense with some analysts speculating that some of the G77 nations were ready and could stage a walkout from the negotiations.
Danish text suggests that it would abandon the Kyoto Protocol - the only legally binding treaty that the world has on carbon emission reduction.
It says: "International public finance support to developing countries would reach the order of (X) billion USD in 2020 on the basis of appropriate increases in mitigation and adaptation efforts by developing countries," meaning it would make any money to help poor countries adapt to climate change depending on their actions.
If such a deal takes place
here in Copenhagen, the adaptation fund would not be anymore, which is a matter of concern for most vulnerable countries like Bangladesh.
Quoting a senior diplomat The Guardian terms the text 'very dangerous documents for developing countries'.
NGOs scrambled to issue statements slamming the developed nations -- apparently the United States, United Kingdom, and Denmark - who were "secretly discussing" the Danish text while other coalitions rushed to* draft their own response.
Kim Carstensen, leader of WWF Global Climate Initiative, said in a statement, "The behind the scenes negotiations tactics under the Danish Presidency have been focusing on pleasing the rich and powerful countries rather than serving the majority of states who are demanding a fair and ambitious solution."
Antonio Hill, Oxfam International Climate Adviser, said in their press statement. "Like ants in a room full of elephants poor countries are at risk of being squeezed out of the climate talks in Copenhagen. As the talks ramp up and the big players put forward their proposals for the deal it is vitally important that vulnerable countries are part of the debate."
Climate policy adviser for Oxfam international, said: "This is only a draft but it highlights the risk that when the big countries come together the small ones get hurting," Hill added.
However, the Danish minister has denied the existence of such text.
When a reporter said that the Danish minister had denied the existence of such text, Di-Aping responded at the press conference of G77 and China, “It absolutely exists. The idea that it does not exist will not help address the concerns around it."
