The meeting has to focus on the issues that will be dealt with by the Arab economic summit, due in Kuwait in late 2008, Secretary General of the Arab League Amr Moussa told the opening session.
"It has to coordinate positions of the Arab countries participating in the conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) (in session in Bali, Indonesia between December 3 and 14)," Moussa asserted.
"The Arab region is one of the worst-affected regions in world by climate change.
