The G20 Summit will begin on the 9th in New Delhi, the capital of India. The leaders overcame their differences over the language referring to the Ukraine war and agreed on a joint statement. This was announced by Indian Prime Minister Modi. According to the prime minister, he plans for the United States to host the G20 summit in 2026.
“We have good news. Through the hard work of our teams, a consensus has been reached on a joint statement,” Modi told fellow leaders in a video posted on social media.
Hours earlier, G20 diplomats had agreed on a compromise text regarding the war in Ukraine. It was unclear whether a joint statement would be reached at the summit due to differences in the positions of Russia and other members.
The language regarding the Ukraine war is similar to what was agreed at last year’s Bali summit, according to people familiar with the matter who spoke on condition of anonymity because the information was internal discussions.
The United States and its allies wanted language that condemned Russia more strongly than the Bali summit. Russia, on the other hand, called for milder language. In the end, they settled on a compromise that allowed both sides to claim a diplomatic victory.
