Anger erupts at U.N. climate summit as major economies resist bold action
MADRID (Reuters) - Major economies resisted calls for bolder climate commitments as a U.N. summit in Madrid limped toward a delayed conclusion on Saturday, dimming hopes that nations will act in time to stop rising temperatures devastating people and the natural world.
With the two-week gathering spilling into the weekend, campaigners and many delegates slammed Chile, presiding over the talks, for drafting a summit text that they said risked throwing the 2015 Paris Agreement to tackle global warming into reverse.

The President of the General Assembly John W. Ashe announced this morning that the General Assembly will hold a special meeting on Thursday to discuss the Ukraine crisis.
The General Assembly meeting will be the first real measure of the degree of Moscow’s international isolation since its annexation of Crimea. Unlike the Security Council, Russia has no veto at the General Assembly. This meeting will have no legal implications for Russia, but it will likely be a show of profound international solidarity for the territorial integrity of Ukraine.
An urgent debate on threats to the functioning of democratic institutions in Ukraine is likely to be a major focus of PACE’s spring session in Strasbourg on 7-11 April 2014.
