G20 approves declaration with brief references to tax on the super-rich and conflicts – World

G20 leaders managed to reach consensus on a final declaration at the annual summit, in which they highlight the global alliance against hunger, but with reduced mention of various regional conflicts and the tax on the super-rich.

Social inclusion and the fight against hunger and poverty, sustainable development, energy transitions and climate action and the reform of global governance institutions, priorities of the Brazilian presidency, were enshrined in the leaders’ declaration with the objective of “guiding actions towards results concrete.”

However, in relation to the conflicts in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, the leaders of the world’s largest economies only emphasize “the urgent need to expand the flow of humanitarian assistance” and “support for a comprehensive ceasefire” in both territories.

The word Ukraine appears mentioned only once in the statement by the G20 leaders, which includes countries such as the United States, Russia, China, France, among others, highlighting “human suffering and the additional negative impacts of the war” and welcoming ” all relevant and constructive initiatives that support a comprehensive, just and lasting peace, upholding all the Purposes and Principles of the UN Charter for the promotion of peaceful relations”.
