Countries such as Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Indonesia are pushing for explicit mention of Israel and a call for a ceasefire in the ongoing West Asia conflict, according to a G20 negotiator.
PM Modi (left) handed over the G20 ceremonial gavel to Brazil President Luiz Inacio da Silva after the G20 Summit 2023 in New Delhi. This time, PM Modi will attend the summit as part of the G20 Troika in Rio de Janeiro.
"Negotiations remain complex and are at a critical stage," the negotiator said. "Nothing is finalized yet. Discussions are still ongoing on geopolitics, climate, and trade. Paragraphs on West Asia and Ukraine are still being negotiated. Whether a joint declaration will emerge remains uncertain, to be determined only at the last moment. Protectionism and market access are key issues, with China and the US on opposing sides. Though Donald Trump's victory (in US presidential elections) has not yet overshadowed the discussions yet, it may influence talks on climate change."
