Premier Wen Jiabao on Friday ended days of climate change diplomacy with a swift low-key meeting with US President Barack Obama, who stayed less than 10 hours in the snowy Danish capital.

Chinese delegation officials told China Daily that the heads of two largest greenhouse gas emitters in the world are likely to set up another meeting later in the day, but arrangement was still being made by press time.

Invited by the US side, Wen held a close-door meeting with Obama after they announced the two countries' climate stance at the high-level segment of the UN climate change conference in Copenhagen.
