NEW DRAFT OF SUMMIT DECLARATION IS BEING DEBATED
http://www.worldsummit2003.org
Paris, 17 July 2003. Two hours ago, at 16:30, the new draft of the summit declaration was released by the secretariat. It incorporates the rough consensuses reached during the first two days of of the Paris Intersessional Meeting. With this new basis for further negotiations, the delegates are much closer towards agreeing on a final draft for the heads of state and government, who are to sign it at the summit in December. The document has also been cut down and become more focused. The delegates are currently discussing the new draft and will probably not finish before later this evening.
Though there has been some progress, the main conflicts areas remain contested.
