Why is the news media like CBC continuing to refer to the invasion of Ukraine as a “war” instead of what it is really is -an “invasion and defence “? Using the term “war” especially on CBC radio fails to address the single sided aggression nature of the. RussianInvasion

How about asking the G20 if nuclear war can be used to black mail the world so a leader can murder millions to get shoreline and property he wants.

How about the G20 asks all participants if they are in favor of nuclear war?

It's no longer G20, It's G10+10, while 10 countries walked out, other 10 continued the event. Dangerous times ahead as 2 fault lines between 2 groups continue to widen, just like it did in pre WW1 era

So move on to the bigger picture, vote Russia out of the G20 permanently or is this the olympics, get a slap on the wrist but can I still compete

How grown-up of them. We're really mad at you so we're going to ignore you and make sure you know we are doing it. Pathetic.

Question will always be: How many will now walk out when reps for Justin speak? Hopefully everyone, everywhere!

That’ll show em!!!

Can’t Canada afford a deputy prime minister and a finance minister?

That will stop those ICBMs.

🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦😀😀..!

cafreeland look at your President Zelensky.

Behaving like a children. Kinda like a group of clickie kids dissing the unpopular kid at school.

Why were the Russians even allowed to attend?

One could argue Russia should not be part of the g20org by virtue of its economy tumbling out of the 20 biggest economies due to its Invasion of Ukraine️. IMF forecasts the Russian economy to fall by 8.5% this year making it smaller than Indonesia’s. G20 StandWithUkraine

Why wasn't Russia expelled from the G20?

Lol

How you obfuscate. The majority 16 stayed while only USA, its poodle and UK left.

Too bad the Americans didn't detain the Russian Finance Minister - but I guess they don't like to do the dirty work themselves.

Meanwhile, gas is at 2$/L, inflation is almost st 7%, and forget about owning a house. But let’s isolate Russia because they will suffer🤦🏽

Look at who's stumping for Putin.

But notice they have not said “you can trade with Russia or with us, but not both”. And they could. But have not.

Too bad not everyone did

Almost as good as when nobody showed up to listen to Trudeau gives his speech at the EU Parliament recently.

How brave 🙄🙄

Surprised the Russian delegation was even there or invited!

Ten people of a possible 19 - not very good showing of support.

So Ukraine is a member of the G20 but not the EU or NATO, or are they just guests?

i160995853 Hypocrites on Steroids ! WarCriminals every last one of them!

are we supporting BDS of occupiers now ?

Yeah that'll learn him . It's this kind of weak 'virtue signalling' that has made Canada weak over the last 20 years and made people like Putin strong

Juvenile pestilence

Russia wins again, breaks up the G20.

Deputy Prime Minister/ Finance Minster walk out as Representative of Ukrainian.

Who let the russkies in, who .. who .. who banrussiafromeverything

Disgusting, shows their true colours that they have no desire to bring peace to the situation and their motive is for war only. You have to communicate for resolution. They are Merchants of death.

Because Russian delegates just use the time to spew their lies and propaganda.

Question is why did the rest stay?🤔

World Economic Forum Elites refusing to do anything. How is this even news?

Freeland, finance officials from Britain, U.S. walk out of G20 meeting as Russian delegates speakRussian Deputy Finance Minister Timur Maksimov attended the meeting in person, while Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov and Russia\u0027s central bank governor… Important & symbolic but that’s all it is. The west and NATO love to say they “stand” with Ukraine. Now they “walk out” with Ukraine. Still not FIGHTING with Ukraine. I know the risk & implications of NATO involvement. I’d rather die than live in Putin’s world. Time to fight. That really accomplished a lot. Just like the Trudeau govt. Zippo notta zilch. I don't think that Freeland and co. ever grew up mentally past grade three. This behaviour is childish.
