Denmark said on Sunday 65 world leaders had agreed to attend a U.N. conference in Copenhagen in December that will try to clinch a new global climate deal, Reuters reported. Facing splits in the climate talks, Denmark 10 days ago formally invited the heads of state and government of 191 U.N. member states to come for the final two days of the Dec. 7-18 conference to push for a deal at the meeting, originally meant for environment ministers. Danish officials declined to provide a full list of those who had agreed to come to the Copenhagen conference, but noted some leaders, such as those from Britain, Germany, France, Japan, Indonesia and Brazil, had announced their intention to attend. A government spokesman said Denmark would let world leaders make their own announcements.
