This was rejected by the &ldquo;Umbrella Group&rdquo; of countries led by the US, including Canada and Australia.<\/p>\n<p>Avoiding names, Xie also said the stance of certain countries had been &ldquo;disappointing&rdquo; during the negotiations in Bangkok because they had disregarded &ldquo;the irreversible trend&rdquo; of global decarbonisation.<\/p>\n<p>Xie was likely making a veiled criticism of the Trump administration, which plans to formally <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinadialogue.net\/article\/show\/single\/en\/9844-Trump-bids-farewell-to-Paris-Agreement\">withdraw the United States<\/a> from the Paris Agreement in 2020, and has been looking for ways to subsidise a declining domestic coal sector and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinadialogue.net\/blog\/10571-Rolling-back-vehicle-standards-harms-health-and-the-economy\/en\">rollback vehicle emission standards<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the impasse, Xie affirmed that cooperation would ultimately triumph. Countries have already narrowed down their differences, and simplified the process by reducing the size of the negotiation text down&nbsp;to approximately 250 pages.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening up old wounds<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Todd Stern, a senior fellow with the Brookings Institution and a former special climate envoy under president Barack Obama until 2016, said the lack of political engagement by the Trump administration in global climate negotiations is &ldquo;making things very difficult&rdquo;.<\/p>\n<p>Stern said the goodwill that helped the world&rsquo;s two largest carbon polluters navigate their differences during the Obama administration is missing.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;When I say we had very good cooperation that didn&rsquo;t mean we didn&rsquo;t fight and argue and have very different views&hellip;we knew we were committed to trying to work together in a way that wasn&rsquo;t going to cross red lines,&rdquo; said Stern.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Eventually &ndash; although it could take a long time &ndash; we will find a way,&rdquo; he added.<\/p>\n<p>Zou Ji, president of Energy Foundation&rsquo;s China Programme, agreed that the Trump administration&rsquo;s uncooperative approach to climate negotiations has made the country &ldquo;a burden&rdquo; to international talks.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;It is not cooperating, yet it is still making a lot of requests,&rdquo; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Stern said if he had been at the negotiation table in Bangkok, he too would have opposed the motion for different rules between developing and developed countries.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This precisely runs across red lines,&rdquo; he said, &ldquo;it would be renegotiating what has been agreed in Paris&rdquo;.<\/p>\n<p>He said there was still enough time to overcome this sticking point, among others, before the deadline for formulating guidelines in December 2018 at the <a href=\"https:\/\/cop24.gov.pl\/\">24th&nbsp;Conference of the Parties<\/a> in Katowice, Poland.<\/p>\n<p>Xie said it is normal for countries to set &ldquo;high demands&rdquo; at this stage in negotiations, adding that the talks are not a zero-sum game, and that every country will have to make compromises eventually.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The aim is to safeguard the shared future of humanity,&rdquo; he said, &ldquo;and then to safeguard [the] interests and red lines of each of [the member] countries&rdquo;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Special representative Xie Zhenhua affirms climate commitment while making a veiled criticism of the Trump administration,
