China vows emissions cutting efforts ahead of Doha conference (3)

"We hope the Doha conference, like the one in Durban (last year), will reach a comprehensive and balanced result," said Xie.

"After nearly two decades of negotiations, we need to finalize the common understanding set up by the convention and the protocol, (in order) to take action and to fulfill the promises made by countries," Xie said.

The most important outcome of the conference should be making definite arrangements for the implementation and enforcement of the second commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol.

It should also ensure that the second commitment period is implemented on Jan. 1, 2013, the report said.

China will keep an open mind in international climate talks only if the principles of fairness and "common but differentiated responsibilities" are adhered to.

"No matter the negotiation result (in Doha), China will take more active measures domestically," said Xie.
