As to what the EU should do to influence countries like China and India that are experiencing rapid economic growth with increasing carbon usage, Anders Wijkman of the European People's Party asked "why not establish partnership with China and India?"
Zviedru deputāts Anders Wijkman no Eiropas Tautas Partijas grupas ieteica nodibināt partnerattiecības ar Ķīnu un Indiju, jo citādāk ES darbība esot nenozīmīga.
