#g20 summit

[phoenixyfriend]

Positive news for the optimistic!

I first heard about this on the BBC Global News Podcast (starts at around 14:40 for me, but that may vary based on the ads they give you), but I found an article from The Guardian as well, if you work best with a text format. Preview:

The G20 group of the world’s most powerful countries is exploring plans for a global minimum tax on the world’s 3,000 billionaires, aiming to end a “race to the bottom” that has enabled the super-rich to pay less than the rest of the population.

I am so proud of the growth India is showing.

I know every country has its issues, and India has many, but it is also an inspiring nation as a whole, going within 3/4s of a century from one of the poorest countries in the world, to now being rightfully seen as one of the global leaders.

Can't wait to see what else we achieve ❤️🇮🇳🇮🇳

Tense exchanges caught live on the tape between Canada's Trudeau and China's Xi. " Everything we discussed has leaked to the newspaper,that's not appropriate. That's not how we do things. Xi Jinping to Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau.

Le président chinois Xi Jinping a critiqué le Premier ministre canadien Justin Trudeau lors du sommet du G20, l'accusant d'avoir divulgué une discussion informelle à la presse. La brouille publique pourrait compliquer des relations bilatérales déjà tendues. Des images prises mercredi 16 novembre 2022 par des journalistes à Bali en Indonésie montrent le président Xi Jinping réprimander Justin Trudeau, de façon cordiale mais ferme, après la fuite supposée dans la presse des détails d'un entretien la veille entre les deux hommes. Le Premier ministre canadien disait avoir évoqué lors de cette rencontre "la question de l'ingérence" chinoise après qu'Ottawa a accusé Pékin de s'ingérer dans ses systèmes démocratique et judiciaire. "Aller raconter aux journaux ce qu'on a dit lors de notre conversation, ce n'est pas approprié", déclare Xi Jinping à Justin Trudeau. D'un ton calme et avec le sourire, le président s'exprime en mandarin et poursuit: "Et en plus, ce n'est pas la façon dont la discussion s'est déroulée". Ses propos sont traduits en anglais par un interprète. "S'il y a de la sincérité de votre part, alors nous devrions avoir une discussion basée sur le respect mutuel. Si tel n'est pas le cas, difficile d'en attendre trop", poursuit Xi à l'adresse de Trudeau. "Dialogue ouvert et franc". Le président chinois tente alors apparemment de prendre congé du Premier ministre canadien, mais ce dernier répond, avant même d'écouter la traduction des propos de Xi Jinping. "Au Canada, nous croyons au dialogue libre, ouvert et franc, et c'est ce que nous allons continuer à faire", déclare Justin Trudeau en anglais. "Nous continuerons à chercher à travailler ensemble de manière constructive, mais il y aura des choses sur lesquelles nous ne serons pas d'accord", souligne-t-il. Pékin minimise la portée de cet échange. Les mains levées et à plat devant lui, Xi Jinping met alors fin à la conversation, et son interprète traduit ainsi ses propos: "Créons d'abord les conditions nécessaires". Souriant, le dirigeant chinois serre la main du Premier ministre canadien, puis les deux hommes se séparent. Interrogée jeudi au sujet de cette vidéo lors d'un point presse régulier, une porte-parole du ministère chinois des Affaires étrangères, Mao Ning, en a minimisé la portée.

"La vidéo contenait une brève conversation entre les dirigeants des deux pays lors du sommet du G20. C'est quelque chose de normal", a-t-elle déclaré. "Je ne pense pas que cela devrait être interprété comme une critique ou une réprimande de qui que ce soit de la part du président Xi", a-t-elle ajouté. "Avoir un dialogue franc n'est pas un problème pour la Chine. Nous espérons juste que ce dialogue franc soit fondé sur l'égalité et le respect mutuel, plutôt qu'empreint d'accusations condescendantes." Il est "extrêmement rare" que des dirigeants chinois manifestent publiquement leur mécontentement d'une manière aussi "spontanée", estime Chong Ja Ian, professeur de sciences politiques à l'Université nationale de Singapour. Selon lui, cette conversation entre les deux hommes montre que Xi Jinping "ne considère pas Trudeau et le Canada comme des interlocuteurs véritablement sérieux". Le ton de l'échange était semblable à celui "d'une 'grande' puissance s'adressant à une moins grande", juge de son côté Van Jackson, professeur en relations internationales à l'université Victoria de Wellington, en Nouvelle-Zélande. La rencontre de mardi entre Xi Jinping et Justin Trudeau était le premier dialogue en face-à-face entre les deux dirigeants depuis 2019. "Jeux agressifs". La police fédérale canadienne a indiqué jeudi dernier mener une enquête sur de supposés "postes de police" mis en place illégalement par la Chine au Canada pour contrôler notamment les Chinois exilés ou expatriés. Justin Turdeau a également déclaré la semaine dernière que la Chine se livrait "à des jeux agressifs" après que la chaîne canadienne Global News a fait état d'une ingérence chinoise dans le processus électoral au Canada. Détérioration des relations. Les relations entre Pékin et Ottawa se sont fortement dégradées ces dernières années, notamment après l'arrestation en 2018 par le Canada, sur demande des Etats-Unis, de la directrice financière de Huawei, géant chinois des télécoms. Malgré une détente relative après sa libération l'an dernier et celle de deux Canadiens qui avaient été arrêtés en représailles, ces dernières semaines ont été marquées par un nouveau durcissement des relations. La Chine reproche par ailleurs régulièrement au Canada d'être trop inféodé aux Etats-Unis

G20 Bali: The Most Explosive Diplomatic Event of the Year — EXPRESS  |  By Aleks Phillips  | PART 3

Continued from the previous post  » » »  Regardless of Ukraine’s presence at the summit, Putin will still be taken to task by the UK’s new Prime Minister.

Ms Truss pledged during a leadership debate with Rishi Sunak that she was prepared to face him directly and “call him out in front of those very important swing countries like India and Indonesia”.  In August, Indonesia’s President Joko Widodo told Bloomberg: “Xi Jinping will come. President Putin has also told me he will come.”

Ms Truss’s campaign said at the time she stood by her earlier comments. Despite previous attempts to mock the then-Foreign Secretary, the Kremlin appeared to view Ms Truss as perhaps an even more avid supporter of Ukraine than Mr Johnson.

Shortly before she was announced as the winner of the Tory leadership contest on Monday, Dmitry Peskov, Putin’s spokesperson, said of relations with the UK: “I wouldn’t like to say that things can change for the worse, because it’s hard to imagine anything worse. But unfortunately, this cannot be ruled out.”

*Photo: Truss pledged she was prepared to face Putin directly at the summit

Mr Zelensky, meanwhile, welcomed the new leader, stating: “We in Ukraine know her well – she has always been on the bright side of European politics. And I believe that together we will be able to do a lot more to protect our nations and to thwart all Russian destructive efforts. The main thing is to preserve our unity, and this will definitely be the case.”

In a congratulatory call with Ms Truss after she was made Britain’s new Prime Minister yesterday, the two leaders vowed “continued close cooperation on global challenges, including supporting Ukraine as it defends itself against Russian aggression” and “addressing the challenges posed by China”.

*Photo: Biden earlier called for Russia to be removed from the G20 bloc altogether

The US President, meanwhile, earlier called for Russia to be removed from the G20 bloc altogether, and American officials had been pressuring Indonesia to exclude Putin from the summit. Mr Biden is still expected to attend the summit, but has not yet publicly stated whether he will.

Lula says Putin will not be arrested at Brazil G20 meeting

Brazilian president says Russian leader will be invited to the G20 meeting in Rio de Janeiro next year.

Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva has said that Russian leader Vladimir Putin will not be arrested in Brazil if he attends the Group of 20 meeting in Rio de Janeiro next year.

Lula, speaking to the Firstpost news show at the sidelines of the G20 meeting in Delhi on Saturday, said Putin would be invited to next year’s event.

He added that he himself planned to attend a BRICS bloc of developing nations meeting due in Russia before the Rio meeting.

“I believe that Putin can go easily to Brazil,” Lula said. “What I can say to you is that if I’m president of Brazil, and he comes to Brazil, there’s no way he will be arrested.”

The statement comes after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant against Putin in March, accusing him of the war crime of illegally deporting hundreds of children from Ukraine.
