Bonn, Germany: Negotiators worked through the night on the technical details of the Paris climate accord before two weeks of global talks on climate change finally ended in Bonn.
Fiji's Prime Minister Frank Bainimarama, who presided over the meeting, swung the gavel about 7am on Saturday. He praised delegates for honing the rules for the 2015 Paris accord on fighting global warming and setting a course for countries to raise their emissions-reduction targets in the coming years.
While the United States has threatened to pull out of the Paris agreement, observers say US delegates played a low-key yet constructive role in Bonn.
The final sticking points included compromises on texts about financial aid for poor countries.
