Developed nations must take lead
By Suneel Sinha Sapporo, Japan, July 8: India's foreign secretary Shivshankar Menon said here on Tuesday that it was "for those who have generated the greenhouse gases that are in the environment today to take the cuts to reduce gases. It's not for the developing countries (to do so). Our emissions are minuscule. It is not for us to make long-term binding commitments." Mr Menon was speaking to reporters here on Tuesday evening after Prime Minister Manmohan Singh had a series of meetings with world leaders.
