Obama: US, Europe must push hard for climate deal
By DESMOND BUTLER, Associated Press Writer Tue Nov 3, 4:41 PM ET
The president spoke Tuesday with European Union leaders at the White House on global warming, Afghanistan, Iran, economic recovery and other matters.
The White House meeting came just a month ahead of a global meeting on climate change in Copenhagen as world leaders negotiate a follow-on agreement to the Kyoto Protocol. Obama says the leaders agree that they must take steps before that meeting to ensure it will yield a substantial framework for progress.
European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso says he emerged from the talks more confident about climate progress.
