If leaders sign off it will avoid this becoming the first G20 summit to end without a joint statement at all. To get there, negotiators had to devise language that walked the line between acknowledging Russia’s concerns and extracting concessions from it.
At the same time, the proposed G20 statement will note differences between some nations by recalling their previously-stated positions on the conflict, the people said. One added the plan for now was to refer to the “war in Ukraine” as opposed to “Russia’s war in Ukraine”. Moscow insists on calling its invasion a “special military operation” and has made it a criminal offence at home to describe it as a war.
There was also agreement on language condemning any threats to use nuclear weapons, the two diplomats said, in a reference to Moscow’s vow to use any and all means at its disposal to defend territory it has illegally annexed in Ukraine. The White House declined on Tuesday to say what final form a communique would take, but a senior US official said they were confident the summit would result in statements that spoke in clear terms to condemn the war as the root cause of economic suffering in many parts of the world. The language would make clear that “most” G20 members denounced the war, the official said.
