1. “In that regard, we stress the importance of fulfilling the Kyoto Protocol commitments according to the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities, by which developed countries maintain their historical responsibility, in line with their ecological footprint, to reduce their emissions, and support developing countries through efforts aimed at adapting to and mitigating climate change. We also feel it is essential to seek political support for the second Kyoto Protocol commitment period. For these reasons, my delegation reiterates its belief in the need to work to achieve agreements based on the instruments we have. We encourage all countries to do likewise and to strengthen the agreements adopted under the Convention.”

2. “The General Assembly, as a universal democratic body, is the ideal forum for making recommendations to address climate change's repercussions at the global level. We are aware that climate change constitutes one of the major problems facing the international community. In that regard, my country has taken specific action to combat climate change and reduce emissions through a process that has been widely discussed at the United Nations; I am referring to the Yasuni-ITT initiative, with which many here are familiar. Climate change will continue to have various effects on the planet's humans and ecosystems. Developing countries are of course vulnerable, which is why we need a cohesive response to the issue that includes technology transfer and the undertaking of appropriate financial commitments.”

3. “Mr. Morejdn (Ecuador) (spoke in Spanish): At the outset, allow me, Mr. President, to acknowledge the presence in this important debate of the Secretary- General, the President of Nauru, my friend Mr. Achim Steiner and Ms. Juanita Castafio. My delegation associates itself with the statement made by the representative of the Argentine Republic on behalf of the Group of 77 and China, as well as with the statement of the representative of Egypt in his capacity as Chair of the Bureau of the Non-Aligned Movement. Ecuador would like to join the majority of countries in asserting that the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change is the body mandated with steering issues stemming from climate change. We believe that the Kyoto Protocol should be respected and that the commitments made under Annex 1 should carried out.”
