Jaishankar emphasised that the G20 is now a more important organisation than it may have been in the past due to the split inside the UN Security Council.
“…We genuinely believe that the overwhelming majority of members of the UN today want to see change. And it’s a very small group of countries who do not want to do that and who, in a sense, are manipulating the system..,” Jaishankar said.
“Multiple challenges confront the G20 today. There is a North-South divide and an East-West disconnect, Covid’s impact across sectors, the Ukraine conflict, a debt crisis, and trade disruptions. These factors have impeded efforts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals and to undertake climate action,” Jaishankar added.
Stating that multiple challenges confront the G20 grouping, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said that India adopted an unconventional approach to its Presidency, making it much more connected with people.
