China, Saudi seek to block anti-fossil fuel language in UN climate deal –sources
GLASGOW, Nov 12: China and Saudi Arabia are among a group of countries seeking to prevent the UN climate deal in Scotland from including language that opposes fossil fuel subsidies, according to two sources close to the negotiations.
The UN climate talks in Dubai could be in jeopardy after some nations reacted furiously to a draft deal on fossil fuels they call "weak". The draft removed language included in a previous text suggesting that fossil fuels could be "phased out".
