UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said on Thursday that China's
position on climate change is constructive and China has sent a
positive signal to the world.
The secretary-general said he held a "very constructive"
telephone conversation with Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao on climate
change before coming to Bali for the United Nations Climate Change
Conference.
The Chinese delegation has been active in the UN conference,
said the UN chief while meeting with Xie Zhenhua, deputy head of
China's National Development and Reform Commission.
Ban said the ongoing UN climate conference "must succeed." He
urged developed nations to take the lead in cutting greenhouse gas
emissions and help developing countries cope with climate
change.
For his part, Xie said China is willing to contribute to the
success of the UN conference.
During the meeting, Xie also briefed the UN Secretary-General of
China's position on climate change, of efforts undertaken and
achievements so far.
