John Kerry: “I reject the linkage of action on climate to other issues in the bilateral relationship.”

There is no current proposal or plan that has been agreed to which would require us to do that.

We're spending billions--literally, actually, trillions.

The message is, let's find a way to be able to make sure when we fly, we're not leaving emissions that we cannot capture.

What we are trying to achieve now is really to establish some stability if we can, in the relationship, without conceding anything.
