Efforts made by countries in previous years towards reducing emissions must be taken into account when setting expected contributions, Hungary's Prime Minister Gordon Bajnai told reporters in Brussels. The climate change proposal of the EU's current Swedish Presidency is unacceptable in its current form, he said. Bajnai held talks with his counterparts from the V4 countries (Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, Czech Rep) and Bulgaria, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania and Slovenia on the subject. He said leaders of the nine countries agreed that the proposal fails to account for differences in economic development between countries in its allocation of expected contributions.
