Centre for Science and Environment Studies Director, Sunita Narain has said that the Copenhagen talks are a trap for Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. She says, "The Prime Minister is walking into a booby trap. He should not come at all to Copenhagen as we are not close to resolving any issues here. Jairam Ramesh should instruct him not to come. He is not coming here to be surprised and he is not coming here to be pressurised on by rich countries to sign on something which compromises our future."
