Let me apologize first of all for my tardiness, and in addition for inadvertently holding up the floor vote – I will motion for an immediate final vote as soon as the nominee responds satisfactorily – but having caught up on the rest of the hearing I want to say I greatly appreciate Transit’s forthrightness in setting out his overall vision and answering the questions he’s been asked so far in great detail, especially with regard to the all-important PRC-ROC situation and the Guantanamo Bay issue.
I’d like to expand on Spark’s question. As we know, China (and, to a lesser but still-considerable extent, India) remain major consumers of fossil fuels and any comprehensive worldwide climate agreement will go nowhere without their full support. How would you balance the ongoing diplomatic situation, especially in regard to China, with this urgent matter, in the event that either nation refuses to fully cooperate in such an agreement?
