Russia-Ukraine war to be an important point of discussion when the foreign ministers from around the world meet during G20 gathering in New Delhi

The Russia-Ukraine war will be an important point of discussion when the foreign ministers from around the world meet during Thursday’s Group of 20 (G-20) gathering in New Delhi, India’s foreign secretary has said.

Top diplomat Vinay Kwatra told reporters that it was equally important to focus on the impact of the Ukraine conflict on the world and the challenges it poses to developing countries.

A gathering of the grouping’s finance ministers and central bank heads over the weekend struggled and failed to reach a consensus on the language to describe Russia’s aggressions, forcing host India to issue a chair’s summary instead of a traditional joint communiqué. New Delhi has said it stands behind the final statement that emerged from last year’s leaders’ summit in Indonesia.
