Kiev's "rapid" criticism!, Just "hammered" through
According to the website of Radio France International, Indian Prime Minister Modi, the host of the G20 summit, announced on the 9th that a joint communiqu é was passed after reaching a consensus at the G20 summit in New Delhi. Ukraine criticized the statement regarding Russia's "aggression against Ukraine" as not worthy of pride.
Indian Prime Minister Modi said, "Thanks to the hard work of our team and your support, a consensus has been reached on the communiqu é of the G20 summit of heads of state and government held in New Delhi." Then he added, "I announce that the communiqu é has been passed," and immediately struck the ceremonial wooden hammer.
It is reported that in recent years, the consensus reached among G20 members has become more and more complex, especially because of differences in positions on the Russia-Ukraine conflict, as well as differences in the funding required for adaptation to climate change.
According to reports, Kiev criticized the section of the G20 summit communiqu é on the war in Ukraine on the 9th, as although all parties condemned the "use of force" in Ukraine to gain territorial benefits, the text did not explicitly mention Russia's "aggression" against Ukraine.
According to the report, Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Nikolanko said, "Ukraine is grateful to those partners who tried to use tough language in the communique text. At the same time, there is nothing to be proud of about Russia's aggression against Ukraine.".

Russia: G20 "Successfully Found Common Language"
According to a report by Russian news agency on September 9th, Svetlana Lukash, Coordinator of G20 Affairs in Russia, said that the G20 Declaration reflects a balanced stance on the Ukrainian issue and a desire to resolve conflicts around the world.
"Regarding the issue of Ukraine, I can say that the talks are very difficult. Firstly, the collective stance of the BRICS countries and other partners has played a role," Lukash told reporters.
According to the report, Lukash pointed out that half of the G20 member states refuse to interpret the development of Ukraine from the perspective of Western interests, and the declaration reflects the negative impact of the conflict in Ukraine on food security in a balanced manner.
She stated that the document successfully reached a "consensus language".
Lukash said, "As members of the G20, we unanimously agree to take joint action to promote world peace, security, and conflict resolution."
The report also stated that Lukash pointed out that G20 countries have achieved important results on many issues at the New Delhi summit. This involves reforming international financial institutions, maintaining macroeconomic stability, maintaining food security, and addressing climate and energy issues. She said that on every issue, the interests of emerging economies in the "global south" have been reflected.
She also stated that this summit is one of the most difficult for the G20, and the Ukraine issue is one of the reasons.
According to reports, Lukash revealed that negotiations on the declaration lasted nearly 20 days. This is not only due to contradictions on the Ukrainian issue, but also due to different positions on issues such as climate change and the transition to a low-carbon energy system. In addition, the reform of international financial institutions has also sparked sharp discussions.
