The world is looking at this summit and at the European Leaders to really deliver, to rise above those kind of internal bickering between EU member states to see the bigger picture of what's needed for Copenhagen and to tackle climate change which is the greatest global threat facing poor people and all of us on this planet, you know, over the coming decade so I am confident that they'll rise above those problems over the next two days.\"\u003cbr/\u003e6.

Cutaway of CEPS publications\u003cbr/\u003e13. SOUNDBITE (English) Marko Incerti, Researcher at Centre for European Policy Studies: \u003cbr/\u003e\"So Mr (Former British Prime Minister Tony) Blair would be the personification of a more powerful, visible, high-profile President of the Council whereas Mr (Luxembourg Premier Jean-Claude) Juncker would be more like a consensus-builder, deal-broker, someone who works behind the scenes and arguably has a bit less diplomatic clout. But I think also as always happens at the summits, there are bound to be names which will only be pulled out of the hat at the very last minute and sometimes it is not so good to be in the race early on because then you are burnt and he will be overtaken by some newcomer.\"\u003cbr/\u003e14. Incerti speaking\u003cbr/\u003eEuropean Union leaders open a difficult summit on Thursday, facing an east-west rift over who should pay most to entice developing nations to sign up to a new global climate change pact.\u003cbr/\u003eThey will also hold a first debate on who should fill the newly created post of EU president and other top jobs.\u003cbr/\u003eFormer British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Luxembourg Premier Jean-Claude Juncker, and former Irish President Mary Robinson have all been pushed to become the EU's first full-time president.\u003cbr/\u003ePowers and tasks of the new EU chair have not yet been defined by the leaders, and agreeing to a name is linked to negotiations on filling the other open jobs of foreign policy chief and 25 commissioners.\u003cbr/\u003eSummit chairman Fredrik Reinfeldt, the Swedish prime minister, appealed to his EU counterparts to compromise on offering a climate aid figure, which he said was key to breaking the deadlock in international negotiations before the December climate summit in Copenhagen.\u003cbr/\u003eThe European Commission has recommended EU nations pay up to 15 (b) billion euro (22.18 (b) billion US dollar) a year to developing nations.\u003cbr/\u003eAid and environmental groups, however, say Europe should be prepared to pay 35 (b) billion euro (23.7 (b) billion US dollar) a year by 2020.\u003cbr/\u003eMeanwhile, hundreds of miniature tents sprung up in Brussels and in other European cities on Wednesday to show EU leaders what is at stake should they fail to agree a position on climate financing.\u003cbr/\u003eInternational aid agency Oxfam installed the tents made by German artist Hermann Josef Hack to, it says, offer a glimpse of the future if people in poor countries, already suffering the effects of climate change, are not given enough public money to protect themselves now.   \u003cbr/\u003eSpeaking in Brussels on Wednesday, Tim Gore, Oxfam International EU Climate Change Policy Advisor said he was confident that the leaders would \"rise about those internal bickering between the EU member states to see the bigger picture...to tackle climate change...which is the greatest global threat facing poor people\".\u003cbr/\u003eMarko Incerti, a researcher at the think-tank Centre for European Policy Studies said there was going to be \"a lot of hard talking\" at this summit but, he said, it was not going to get \"so confrontational\" because there was \"a bit more of common position already on the table.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"There remain differences and as usual it's about money, it is about what countries are prepared to accept in terms of reduction of their emissions and in as well as of how much countries are prepared to fork out to help developing countries deal with emissions trading in their respective countries,\" Incerti said on Wednesday.\u003cbr/\u003ePoland and other poorer eastern EU member states are demanding richer, older states like Germany and France pay substantially more.\u003cbr/\u003eThey argue that amid the financial crisis they can ill afford to fork over (m) millions and are blaming older members, that have polluted more over past years, who they say should give more.\u003cbr/\u003eWarsaw demands a deal that will link national contributions to past responsibility for adding carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.\u003cbr/\u003eThe disagreement has meant EU governments have postponed a plan to put a figure on their aid, delays that threaten to scuttle a deal at the UN Copenhagen summit.\u003cbr/\u003eWealthy nations are seeking broad controls on emissions from all countries in the new pact, which is supposed to replace the UN's 1997 Kyoto Protocol on carbon dioxide emissions.\u003cbr/\u003eBut developing countries say industrialised nations - who are responsible for much of the carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere - should carry most of the burden, saying tough emissions limits on poor countries would likely hamper their economic growth.\u003cbr/\u003eLeaders will also have their hands full with the EU's reform treaty and the refusal so far of lone holdout Czech President Vaclav Klaus to sign it.\u003cbr/\u003eDiplomats are confident however that EU leaders can agree to Klaus' demand for an opt-out from the treaty's Charter of Fundamental Rights.\u003cbr/\u003eKlaus, an ardent euroskeptic, is demanding an opt-out as condition for his signature over fears the charter will be used by ethnic Germans to reclaim land they lost in the Czech Republic after World War II.\u003cbr/\u003eKlaus is the only one yet to sign the treaty which streamlines decision-making and adds key posts like an EU president, and a more powerful foreign policy chief to boost the bloc's global influence.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex justify-between'\u003e\n\u003cbutton aria-expanded='false'
