NUSA DUA, Indonesia – Leaders of the Group of 20 economies joined a summit for the second day on Wednesday, although the schedule was disrupted by an emergency meeting to discuss reports of a missile landing in Polish territory near Ukraine.
On the sidelines of the summit, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen held a two-hour meeting with Chinese central bank Governor Yi Gang, her first in-person talks with a senior Chinese economic official. As at other recent international forums, the United States and its allies were seeking a statement from the G20 summit against Moscow’s military actions.
“Most members strongly condemned the war in Ukraine and stressed it is causing immense human suffering and exacerbating existing fragilities in the global economy,” it said.The draft also said “the use or threat of use of nuclear weapons is inadmissible”. Host Indonesia has pleaded for unity and a focus on problems like inflation, hunger and high energy prices, all exacerbated by the war.
