What happened at the G-20 conference in Rio de Janeiro
Earlier in the G-20 summit, even though the major economies of the world stressed on stopping the global conflicts affecting the entire geo-politics, but no concrete plan could be agreed upon for efforts for this. In a joint statement issued after extensive discussions, the G-20 leaders called for a joint fight against hunger and poverty, more aid to war-torn Gaza, and an immediate end to hostilities in Middle East Asia and Ukraine. The joint statement condemned the conflicts without holding anyone responsible. Referring to the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza, emphasis was laid on taking steps to help. The agenda of the G-20 leaders' meeting on Tuesday, the second day of the summit, focused on climate change. In his proposal, host Brazilian President Lula da Silva emphasized the need to ensure a sustainable future for future generations. He said, it is necessary for G-20 countries to immediately implement emission reduction targets, because its member countries are responsible for 80 percent of greenhouse gas emissions.
Inspired by India's efficiency: Da Silva
Brazilian President Lula da Silva praised PM Modi for the successful organization of G-20 in New Delhi during the bilateral meeting. According to sources, President Lula said that he tried to repeat many things which were inspired by the summit held in India. He said, we took forward India's decisions. Brazil wanted to conduct the conference with the same level of efficiency as India had done.
