Jakarta (ANTARA News) - Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has congratulated Indonesia for its success in hosting the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) which has produced a `Bali Roadmap.`
Indonesian Ambassador to Poland Hazairin Pohan said in a statement made available to ANTARA here on Wednesday that Donald Tusk congratulated Indonesia when he received Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR) Speaker Agung Laksono in Warsaw.
"Poland wants to learn from Indonesia`s experience in hosting the UNFCCC conference as in 2008 it will be its turn to host a similar meeting," the ambassador said.
The UN conference on climate change in Bali last week endorsed the Bali Roadmap after tough debates and even a deadlock in talks on crucial issues toward its closing session.
It marked the first time for world leaders to come together to to produce a new climate change framework.
Among the important achievements the Bali meeting made was getting the US to agree to take part in a new consensus. This meant the US will participate in the Warsaw negotiations in 2008 and in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 2009.
The UNFCCC in Copenhagen will discuss a framework to replace the Kyoto Protocol which will expire in 2012.
