00:00But let me reiterate the overall sense that we have as a constituency, as a European Union.
00:09And as I said here in the press conference, I'm not going to sugarcoat this, the text
00:15as it now stands is clearly unacceptable.
00:19If you look at the part on mitigation, it clearly did not do what we promised ourselves.
00:28We cannot accept the view that apparently for some the previous COP did not happen.
00:34What we had on our agenda was not just to restate the EU consensus, but actually to
00:40enhance that and to operationalize that.
00:44And this text is actually going in the opposite direction.
00:49So I'm sorry to say, but there is a lot of work ahead of us for the presidency, for all
00:56parties involved, but I'm sure there is not a single ambitious country who thinks this
01:02is nearly good enough.
