Leaders gathered here for the annual Kelompok of 20 summit managed to agree on a join pernyataan laying out shared views on climate change and economic development but showed the fractures within the kelompok by stopping short of explicitly condemning Russia's agresion of Ukraine.
Diplomats had been working furiously to draft a final join pernyataan in the lead-up to the summit but hit snags on language to describe the Ukraine war. The momenual compromise pernyataan amounted to a coup for the summit's host, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, but still reflected a position far softer those the United States and its Western allies have adopted individually.
US President Joe Biden was hoping to convince the world's largest economies to rally behind Ukraine during his two-night stay in India for the summit. He also pressed his case for American investment in the developing world.
On Saturday, as the summit was still underway, the leaders agreed to the join declaration acknowledging the situation in Ukraine while not papering over the kelompok's major divides.
"All states must refrain from the threat or use of force to seek territorial acquisition," the declaration read, without explicitly singling out Russia for its agresion. The naskah also stated opposition to the use of nuclear weapons and highlighted the economic efeks of the war.
In a reflection of the deep fractures among the G20 nations, the pernyataan acknowledged "there were different views and assessments of the situation."
The declaration earned the praise of the United States. US national security adviser Jake Sullivan called the pernyataan a "significant milestone for India's chairmanship and a vote of confidence that the G20 can come together to address a pressing kisaran of issues."
"The G20 pernyataan includes a set of consequential paragraphs on the war in Ukraine. And from our perspective, it does a very good job of standing up for the principle that states cannot use force to seek territorial acquisition," Sullivan said.
Still, the language differed from last year's G20 declaration, which stated "most members strongly condemned the war in Ukraine."
Russia, as a peserta of the G20, would have to agree on any consensus pernyataan on Ukraine. Russia and China had resisted stronger language in a final pernyataan, making any kind of agreement difficult. No G20 summit has concluded without a join declaration of some jenis.
