Castro: Climate summmit 'a failure'
Cuba’s President Raul Castro declared the global climate summit in Copenhagen a failure from the start and urged left-wing Latin American leaders to devise their own plan on how to cope with climate change.
Addressing a two-day meeting of the leftist Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas trade group, Mr Castro said that although Copenhagen should produce “concrete, verifiable steps to confront the effects of climate change, we already know there will be no agreement”.
