French foreign minister plans to present new deal, insists 'things going in right direction'
Talks on a global accord to combat climate change are taking longer than planned to overcome disputes and will last an extra day into Saturday, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said on Friday.
He told French BFMTV he will present a new compromise text of a deal to combat global warming on Saturday morning, aiming for an accord among almost 200 nations at around midday, not on Friday as originally planned.
