12.05 Manmohan Singh, the Prime Minister of India, seems to be suffering from a very dry mouth. In between audible gulps, <img src='http://www.india-forum.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> he says the Kyoto protocol should continue to stand as a working document, insisting that we should not replace it with weaker commitments.



He says it is vital that developing nations are given the required help in meeting targets on emissions. “Equitable burden sharing should therefore underlie any effective climate change regime,” he says.



“Each one of us gathered here today accepts that those most affected by climate change is least responsible for it. . . we must address this injustice.”

It was, Murmur Singh's beard and 10 Janpath magic, not dry mouth.
