Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that the G20 must focus on challenges faced by Global South countries such as food, fuel and fertilizers crisis as they are adversely affected due to global conflicts. Addressing the first day of the G20 Summit taking place in Brazil’s Rio de Janeiro, PM Modi said that India’s G20 theme of “One Earth, One Family, One Future” is as relevant at the ongoing summit as it was last year. US President Joe Biden ,

Modi, Chinese President Xi Jinping and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer are among the leaders attending the two-day summit at Rio de Janeiro’s Modern Art Museum.

The people-centric decisions taken at the G20 Summit in New Delhi last year have been taken forward during Brazil’s presidency of the bloc.

I would like to say that countries of the Global South are most adversely impacted by the food, fuel and fertilizer crisis caused by global conflicts.

So our discussions can only be successful when we keep in mind the challenges and priorities of the Global South.
