Delhi G20 Summit Confirms Isolation Of Russia, Macron Says

The G20 summit in New Delhi came to a conclusion on Sunday with India handing the organization’s chair to Brazil. Both the United States and Russia applauded a consensus that did not denounce Moscow for the conflict in Ukraine but urged participants to abstain from using force.

The group’s leaders were tasked by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to convene a virtual meeting in November to assess the status of the goals and policy recommendations that were unveiled over the weekend.

In a statement, he stated, “It is our job to look at the proposals that have been made to see how development might be quickened.

On Saturday, the group issued a Leaders’ Declaration that avoided criticizing Russia for the crisis while highlighting the misery it had brought about and urging other states to refrain from using force to seize new territory.

Surprisingly, consensus was reached. Sharp disagreements over the war had threatened to derail the summit in the weeks prior to it, with Russia threatening to veto any resolution that would not support its position and Western nations demanding that participants condemn Moscow for the invasion.

The summit was successful for both India and the Global South, or developing nations, according to Sergei Lavrov, the head of the Russian delegation.

He said during a press conference that the Global South’s participation in the discussions helped keep Ukraine from overshadowing the G20 agenda. India has effectively brought together G20 participants from the Global South.

The summit declaration “does a very good job of standing up for the principle that states cannot use force to seek territorial acquisition or to violate the territorial integrity, sovereignty, or political independence of other states,” according to Jake Sullivan, the national security adviser for the White House.

The resolution has also received plaudits from Germany and Britain, although Ukraine stated “it was nothing to be proud of.”

The G20, which was established to address global economic challenges, is not always the place to anticipate diplomatic progress on the situation in Ukraine, according to French President Emmanuel Macron.

He claimed that the G20 statement was not a diplomatic triumph for Russia.

“The isolation of Russia is once again confirmed by this G20. Today, the vast majority of G20 members denounce the conflict in Ukraine and its effects, said Macron at a press conference held following the summit’s closing ceremony.
