The absence of Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping at the G-20 summit, along with divisions over the Ukraine war, are expected to impede progress on global economic and political matters. The G-20, composed of Western states and Global South nations, has encountered challenges in reaching consensus. However, it has managed to make advances in areas such as reforming Multilateral Development Banks and forgiving and restructuring sovereign debt through the Common Framework for Debt Treatments. The G-20’s ability to function, despite public disagreements, is attributed to the neutral chairing of developing economies like Indonesia and India.
Leaders of the world’s largest economies gathered on Saturday to discuss ways to ease burdens on poorer nations, opening a Group of 20 summit whose Indian hosts hope will advance a global economic agenda even as it is overshadowed by Russia’s war in Ukraine and the absence of the Russian and Chinese leaders.
