BERLIN, June 8 - Leaders of five major developing countries met here Thursday to discuss the world economy, climate change and other key issues ahead of a meeting with leaders of the Group of Eight (G8) industrialized nations.

 

Attending the meeting were Chinese President Hu Jintao, Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, Mexican President Felipe Calderon, South African President Thabo Mbeki and Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

 

The leaders will also hold "an outreach session" with their counterparts of the G8 countries on Friday in Heiligendamm, a Baltic resort town in northern Germany.

 

On the world economy, the Chinese president said developing countries should "cooperate with each other to jointly1 cope with the risks of economic globalization, safeguard our common interests, create favorable conditions for our development and promote coordinated2 global development."

 

On climate change, Hu said China gives high priority to environmental protection and sustainable development.

 

"We follow the scientific thinking of development which is people-oriented and calls for all-round, coordinated and sustainable development," he said.

 

China strictly3 complies with relevant international conventions and has taken a series of measures to contribute to mitigating4 the impact of global climate change, he said.

 

To more effectively tackle climate change, Hu said, the Chinese government has adopted a national climate change program.

 

"We will fully5 implement6 this program. In so doing, we are not only living up to our responsibilities for our own people, but also contributing our share to the global cause of sustainable development," he said.

 

The leaders from the five nations pledged to abide7 by the principle of "common but differentiated8 responsibilities" while tackling climate change and urged developed nations to take the lead in reducing greenhouse gas emission9.

 

On the Doha round of trade talks, the leaders said efforts should be made to conclude the negotiations10 at an early date and the results should reflect the interests and concerns of developing countries. They also urged developed nations to reduce subsidies11 for agricultural products and lower import tariffs12.

 

On the development issue, the leaders vowed13 to continue efforts in eradicating14 hunger and poverty and urged developed nations to honor their commitments on aid and help developing countries achieve the UN Millennium15 Development Goals.

 

Developing countries should participate in decision-making and actions in a more active attitude so as to meet various challenges in this inter-dependent world, the leaders said in a communique issued after the meeting.

 

On the issues to be discussed with G8 countries, the leaders said they saw opportunities for cooperation in cross-border investment, research and innovation, climate change, energy and development.

 

All of these challenges "must be addressed from multi-lateral, regional and bilateral16 perspectives and the interests and capabilities17 of different countries should be taken into consideration," the document said.
