Enrique Maurtua Konstantinidis from the CAN-Latin America coalition of environmental NGOs says Peru is a great choice as host of the COP 20 climate talks

Peru’s diplomatic stance in past UN climate talks makes it an ideal host to bring countries together for the 2014 summit.

Enrique Maurtua Konstantinidis, regional coordinator for the CAN-Latin America coalition of environmental NGOs, welcomed the decision to nominate Peru.

Latin American countries met during the UN talks in Bonn and decided unanimously to nominate Peru with Venezuela hosting the pre-COP meeting.
